I didn't dwell a lot on the MacBook Air when Apple first unveiled it in January 2008. Its thin profile and light weight were definitely impressive. But with an $1,800 price tag for the base model, slow processors, only an 80-gigabyte hard drive and no DVD drive, the notebook was too expensive, too underpowered and too limited to get me too excited.
