  • More on-the-go production power than ever
  • Solid-state hard drive gives you ultra-fast and totally reliable storage
  • Equipped with fast and future-proof Thunderbolt
  • Made for media

More on-the-go production power than ever
Featuring over twice the processing performance of the previous generation, Apple's new MacBook Air laptop lets you handle bigger projects, without giving up the portability you demand. But processing power isn't the only major performance upgrade this MacBook Air gives you. Faster memory lets you get more from your favorite software and virtual instruments, an thanks to the onboard Intel HD Graphics 3000 processor, you get amazing video too - perfect for video playback, media production, and FaceTime collaboration.

Solid-state hard drive gives you ultra-fast and totally reliable storage
The MacBook Air comes loaded with a lightning-fast flash-memory hard drive, featuring read/write speeds that leave 7,200 rpm hard drives in the dust. That means your MacBook Air will easily exceed the demands of projects that feature high track counts or high-resolution audio - no external hard drive needed! What's more, you can leave your MacBook Air in standby mode for up to 30 days, and it will still instantly snap to life when you open the lid. And since flash-based storage means no energy wasted on moving parts, your MacBook Air can run for hours on a single charge.

Equipped with fast and future-proof Thunderbolt
No matter what your media demands may be, the MacBook Air's Thunderbolt port gives you the ultra-fast connectivity you need. Capable of supporting data transfer rates up to 12 times faster than FireWire 800, Thunderbolt connects you to all of your high-speed peripherals, with a single cable. And when you add one of Apple's amazing Thunderbolt displays to your setup, you turn your MacBook Air into a complete workstation, which includes additional USB 2.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and FireWire 800 ports, plus a FaceTime HD camera, 2.1 stereo sound.

Made for media
Apple's next generation MacBook Air laptop takes portable media to the next level. Sporting a display that's a mere 4.86 millimeters thin, the MacBook Air gives you absolutely breathtaking graphics. That's because the MacBook Air's display is packed with far more pixels than a typical display of the same size. The result: smoother, more detailed graphics than you'd ever expect. But that's not all. The MacBook Air also comes with Apple's thinnest FaceTime camera onboard, allowing you to video chat, without weighing you down. And to top it all off, Apple gave this MacBook Air an incredible stereo speaker system for excellent on-the-go sound!

Our Customers Say...

When it came time to start from scratch with the studio, I had a lot of questions. The Sales Engineers I've worked with are really friendly and patient, and the guidance they provided was invaluable; they basically helped build the studio.
