Katt gets paws on MacBook Air

摘要

The Perpetual Motion Mouser was back in the City by the Bay for Macworld, which to his discerning eye seemed to be bigger than ever. The show occupied three Moscone Center halls wall to wall, and the crowd made it difficult at times to get around the aisles. Apple aficionados swarmed the company's booth for a chance to just touch the new MacBook Air, like pilgrims eager to lay hands on sacred relics. The big software news of the show should have been Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac. But the Apple faithful seemed to stifle a yawn. While Microsoft's Macintosh Business Unit people worked hard to pack the new version with features, many Apple partisans expressed a preference at the show and in the blogosphere for lean, but effective and less expensive, products such as FileMaker's Bento.
