Thinnest. Laptop. Ever.

According to Apple's measurements, the MacBook Air weighs 3 pounds even and measures 0.16 inche thick at its thinnest and only 0.76 inch thick at its portliest. Jobs called it "the world's thinnest notebook," and he may be right. We measured Toshiba's R500 at 0.77 inch and Sony's VAIO TZ at 0.8 inch. Of course, we may have rounded up when looking at the VAIO TZ. Still, we can certainly call the MacBook Air a remarkably thin laptop.
