With the release of the extremely modest upgrades to its MacBook Air line today, Apple has put a lot of existing inventory in a lurch, allowing retailers to slash prices. Apple’s upgrade included a updated processor which inched the needle from 1.3GHz to 1.4GHz. Otherwise, the MacBook Are identical.
What’s not identical is the price. Dropping the Airs $100 allows retailers like MacMall and B&H to drop prices even more on these new in box EOL machines that also include Apple’s 1 year warranty (and both companies offer AppleCare upgrade pricing that is better than Apple’s own prices).
MacMall’s prices (Tax in California, Colorado, Illinois, New York, Tennessee, Minnesota, Georgia, North Carolina and Wisconsin):
