Apple 13.3" MacBook Air Notebook Computer, 1.7GHz Dual-Core Intel Core i7, 8GB RAM, 512GB Flash Storage, Mac OS X Mavericks

Apple MacBook Air is faster and more powerful than before, yet it's still incredibly thin and light. It's everything a notebook should be. And more. Powerful, capable, durable, and enjoyable to use, MacBook Air packs enough battery life to get you through the day. Fourth-generation Intel Core processors in MacBook Air give you more time to do more things. Add that to an array of other smart and efficient features, and you have an incredible amount of power in your hands. While carrying next to nothing. That's the difference between a notebook that's simply thin and light and one that's so much more.

If you looked inside MacBook Air, you'd see something remarkable: how much space Apple devoted to the battery. That's thanks to smaller components such as flash storage. And when the goal is to design the perfect notebook for everyday use, giving priority to the battery just makes sense. With the 11-inch MacBook Air, you'll get up to 9 hours of battery life or up to 8 hours when watching iTunes movies. And the 13-inch model lasts up to a staggering 12 hours or up to 10 hours of iTunes movie playback. Put MacBook Air to sleep for more than 3 hours, and it enters standby mode. That means you can come back to MacBook Air up to an entire month later and it wakes in an instant. Time is on your side, courtesy of MacBook Air.

Multi-Touch technology is part of practically every Apple product. It's the best and most personal way to interact with your devices. And the opt imal way to experience Multi-Touch on a notebook is through a trackpad. That's precisely the case with MacBook Air. The trackpad's spacious, all-glass surface doesn't have a button because the whole thing is the button. And with Multi-Touch gestures in OS X, you can interact with MacBook Air in ways that feel more intuitive and realistic than ever before.

Anyone can try to make a notebook that's thin and light. Success comes in doing it without cutting corners. That's why MacBook Air features a full-size keyboard that's just as comfortable to type on as a desktop keyboard. And the keyboard is backlit, so you can type in low-light conditions with ease. A built-in sensor detects changes in the ambient lighting and adjusts the keyboard and display brightness automatically, giving you the perfect illumination in any environment.

MacBook Air features a unibody design for both the main enclosure and the display. Unibody construction means a higher-precision, less complex design with fewer parts. That translates to a notebook that's exceptionally thin and light, yet durable enough to handle the rigors of everyday use. In addition, MacBook Air offers innovations you won't find anywhere else like the MagSafe 2 power connector, which breaks cleanly away from the notebook if you accidentally trip over the power cord.
