âFor a lot of people,â says Ken Mingis , âsmaller and lighter is better when it comes to their laptops.â  He considers MacBook Air âone of the coolest-looking laptops to appear in years â both in terms of size and hipness.â It has âa gorgeous display that looks sharper and brighter on the Air than it does on the regular MacBook.â And, he says, âwaking it up from sleep mode took about 2 seconds, and the LED backlighting means the screen hit full brightness as soon as it was awake.â As for performance: âThe Air feels just about as snappy as my MacBook Pro in day-to-day use doing the kinds of things most users will be doing: surfing the Web, firing off e-mails, text editing and light graphics work.â

Awarding the iMac G5 five stars, PC Magazine writes, &#147;Pros: Simple, stunning all-in-one design. Quiet. Just one cord (for power), thanks to optional Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. More compact than other all-in-one desktops. Gorgeous 20-inch screen and desktop-caliber hard drive make machine more usable than a desktop-replacement notebook, for the same money and space use&#133; Bottom Line: Apple has another design coup on its hands with the Apple iMac G5. Its clean, simple look &#151; imagine if an iPod grew into a full-size, self-contained PC &#151; exclaims, &#145;It&#146;s about time they designed a computer like this.&#146;&#148; [Sep 21]

&#147;The Macintosh, with its OS X operating system, is rock solid,&#148; writes Walt Mossberg for the Wall Street Journal. &#147;It is elegant, and &#151; when you do a feature-by-feature price comparison with Windows competitors &#151; it&#146;s surprisingly affordable.&#148; [Dec 09]

Calling Leopard the âapple of my eye,â Dwight Sliverman (Houston Chronicle) tells us that as heâs played with the newest version of Mac OS X, âIâm constantly being surprised by smart, useful and convenient touches. It is a pleasure to use.â For example, he calls Spaces his âfavorite Leopard feature, because it instantly multiplies your desktop real estate. Those who use portable computers will particularly appreciate it. On my MacBook itâs a godsend.â

&#147;It has been a good year for Apple,&#148; writes Wilson Rothman in naming the iMac G5 TIME Gadget of the Week. &#147;Since the beginning of 2004, I&#146;ve discussed GarageBand, AirPort Express and the latest iPod. If you go back 12 months, you can probably even throw in iTunes Music Store, the original G5 and the official release of iChat AV. This isn&#146;t favoritism, I&#146;m just impressed. Rather than spend money on its silly &#145;Switch&#146; ad campaign, the company has spent it inventing actual reasons for people to switch from Windows to Mac, not least of all personal style. The iMac G5 is super suave, but it&#146;s also a pretty good deal.&#148; [Sep 22]

Is Apple airtight? The unveiling of Apple's super-thin MacBook Air promises to expand further the Mac user base. That's troubling news for a platform that, as it enjoys greater uptake, risks the darker side of fandom - stalkers. Or, in this case, hackers and virus writers.â¦
