I do.
I carry it around most days to and from work to fart around at lunchtime. It's not a bother.
Now if I had a Macbook air, I'd probably forget I even had it. |

Thats the thing. The MacBook Air is in offer from the boss. But iam not sure it might be a bit limiting for me.
Dont know what to do. |

| I do and it is kind of a part of my body now. Travels to whereever I go most of the time. And extra lighter if it is an Air. Damn. I am jealous that you are offered an Air now. ;-P |

| the air only has 1 usb port, and no cd drive, that would prove to be somewhat of a challenge |

Which is alright if they come up with a way of doing target mode with usb. Other wise a very good feature will disappear. |

| I have a macbook. I don't carry it around all the time, but its certainly perfectly portable... unlike my previous behemoth of a laptop. I would never buy a macbook air... although if it were given to me I wouldn't exactly say no. |

Oh, great. I've got some external hard discs with fire wire, usb with them is soooo slow. The one usb disc I have is so hopeless, it's usually turned off.
Well, perhaps this huge PPC G5 will keep on going a few more years. I'd like a laptop on the side, though. |

haha, just saying
a lot of people in my school have a macbook around with them a lot becuse its required for classes and stuff, its definitely easier than bringing a PC laptop around. Most people i know use the 15" one instead of the 17" though |
