Sure, you'll see the occasional laptop owner try and settle in for a few hours, but panic sets in fast — eventually fear drives everyone to make ‘a move, freeing up seats for the next wave of creative laptops But Apple's new 13-inch MacBook Air might change Toby's for good — it's almost exactly the same externally as last year's model, but a revised chipset inside offers a claimed 12-hour battery life with improved graphics performance and even faster W-i speeds if you have a compatible router. In short, Apple's just taken the best overall laptop on the market and turned it Into a declaration of war against coffee shops everywhere, DESIGN - On the left side, you'l find the only real design change in this version of the Air: dual stereo mics instead of the single mono mic of years past. Apple says the two mics allow for noise cancelling during cals and adaptive voice detection when you're using OS X's dictation feature; everything seemed to work just finefor me. You'l also find a USB 3 port on the left, as well asa headphone jack and a MagSafe 2 power socket On the right side, you'll find another USB 3 port, a Thunderbolt port, and an SDXC card slot. Most Air-toting travellers | know always pack both Ethernet and monitor-out dongles in their bags, that 720p FaceTime camera is stil just okay, and while the 1440 x 900 display is still as sharp and bright as ever, it's starting to look pretty average next to the high res displays in newer Windows laptops, the Chromebook Pixel, and Apple's own Retina machines.WRAP UP \We've been recommending the MacBook Air for three years straight ‘now, 50 this is pretty simple: if you're a normal person shopping fora laptop, you should buy a MacBook Air It does all the things you want 2 laptop todo, it does them well, nd now it does them for 12 hours at clip.

Every other complaint about this machine feels ke a quibble (sigh, Ethernet adapter) or longing for spec bump upgrades that don't feel all that necessary yet (touchscreen Retina display, aryone?) But it's pretty hard to value any of those things over 12-hour batery ie sre ‘Rona had Apple eae tore Infact, when I showed the new Air to the people at Toby's they did't look impressed — they/ve seen a lot of MacBooks come Inand out of ther shop.

"That's longer than we stay open” said one ofthe barista, with a note in is voice somewhere between admiration and concern, The new Airis the fst of dramatic new breed of computer — it lets you set up a mobile office fora fll day without concern for power.REVIEW Ubuntu Touch 13.10 en tte a ete eet ee os te Cece erie aan Peres Ms art tery et eee Te ree Pere ee ee ee rien arnt eect eer ieee tra ante ee ee eon eros pier eenerer eee cr eee nen ene reer en Ener een en ee ee ee ee ene retention en eesti ty SR ae ens eee eae sr) Prey ‘swiping in from the ff edge brings up the Unity Dock Launcher. which Pee eterna Me eet net ey ree eerie aed Sa ec nee a eer et es ener eat arena Teeter ec eee emer ee the left edge after the Dock shows up, you wil see thatthe app stars Bienen ea tee een eee oes Pe rece ee eto ee ich eae Sea ure ce a eer Pore toes Bla8 Jee | (Over the past few years, Android and 10S have pretty much dominated the smartphone arena tothe Pee er nn ren ret ean ety Rete ent ee tea ee ete et eer Pe er eer eer et ene ce a ee ee eee Pee ee en EN aT eon ae ee ee ree eee ree ee et er Sera eer en ee earn ie aaa een eet een Tee er ee eae Perec t ta Pete ae eet ed eee eet aa ena peerin senE eis eae Sa eae Cenc er ret Ce aetna ears Pt Pry Swiping up from the bottom edge while any app is running oe enim ean) Reet ay ae ree Pe eae teen eee Ie ed Pen tree ers ert errr ei ee octet Peet Cee ee ee ee eee St ee mc er eae attce) Apps CC eee ey Tete en eT errr etna nia ieee err ee een to Sr etonen The slock Browsers perhaps the most ete aero eae eee accurately and the address bar aulohides to peee tenner ireyeny Pees carer rennet ern eee ers ea era you similarly access and manage all your ene Friends (Social Media Hub) ee et rere tet eo Poe ae ene nerea ernie oe er) Pot eee an area eit errant eee eee Pacers oy ee eee een Roc esata) eet eer rier) Coe eres pana ered ee ae pe eee te ea en enema tern rr net Patten foe eet eC para See ee meer es Rr eee rt Stee eee ee tr Pre Ecce eon) er ne ey Pree Tat teu euei testy cores Cr Seen Cre eee eee Perec rt Sree ec seg rs Senter tts eee (08 stl has along way to go betore it becomes eer ae rd porn nee ed Pee ennREVIEWS ASUS PadFone Infinity PRICE = $850 TECHNICAL SPECS - >os— > System RAM > amen 2400 man 000 mah >weeht 145 g uth baton) > CPU Tamiy Core Quleome Snapragon 809 >6Pu: ‘eno 320 Scams 13 Mega Poel ear] BATTERY LIFE iu 6.5 Hours PIXEL DENSITY (ppi) - 441 ppi Almost exactly to years ago, Motorola's Androidn-Webtop-0S solution was kicked of the stage by ASUS' Padong, the words ret phono Wat could fly power a tabet ‘odie from is own OS.

At some point. the iPad was going to bump up withthe MacBook Alc and it's looking le that time ts coming in the spring. It.sooms to be basically confirmed that thee wl bea 12.94nch iPod released, andi seems reasonable fo assume that a tablet ofthat size ‘would almost require a keyboard cover accessory, because holding something that size ‘would get awkward even if Apple can work its magic and get the weight down. But, the ‘ueston comes because Apple doesnt ike to overlap its products, because that causes: confusion fr the customer. Apple has always kept its prodict line small to make it easier to {get customers what thay want That's why older models of Apple products ae retired so often, itkeeps the choice down toa few specific price points and thats |s Apple planning to replace the MacBook Air ‘with a 12.9.inch Pad Air? ‘The functionality gap between he 97-inch iPad and the entry-level 11-inch MacBook Air has kept ‘thors trom boing any ral overlap between those products so far; but. f the IPad is going to push into tho 12.9.nch space, that could point to lager changes. Beyond the larger screen size and the rumor of a keyboard cover, Apple's push to bring Work and iif tothe iPad plays big partin this equation, as does a comment ‘om CEO Tim Cook hime During tho most recent Apple quarterly earnings call, Tim Cook confirmed that Apple would be launching new product categories in 2014 ‘The intial assumption was that he was referring to the Watch, which is expected nest year: But, that comment could just as easily apply to a tablevaptop hybrid. We havent really seen ‘Apple trying to converge iOS and MacOS at the system level ke we Have seen with ‘windows and Ubuntu, but Apple has been. ‘working towards convergence atthe app level But, there are also the Apple options. Work for the iPad works quite wel, and it seems safe to assume that t would be a focal point of any IPadBook Ar type product. On the other side Is iif, which covers another big swath ofthe usual complaints when it comes to itching a so-called ul" operating systom.

Add in the possibilities of 2 keyboard accessory. and that potenia! only arowes ‘The only other issue that would be up for dobate ls connocuvy [Pads historically have spurned the adkltion of any standard connector ports like USB, but if ‘Appic is realy going to push into a tablet hybrid form factor, that would be a must Although, I would expect to see iton the 129.nch iPad ise it would be hard toimagine Apple doing this and not putting a USB port on the Keyboard dock Power vs need \Wnile 108 may be more restrictive than ‘MacOS, the vast majority of users dont really need the higher-end apps.
