Apple MacBook Air
Apple MacBook Air
This is going to wow you. Apple just introduced a new ultraportable MacBook series notebook, the MacBook Air. The most impressive thing is its thickness, to be the world’s thinnest notebook with only 0.76-inch (19.4mm) with width and depth of 12.8×8.94-inch (325×227mm), and only weight 3.0 pounds (1.36kg), in a sleek, sturdy anodized aluminum case. It is powered by Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 4MB on-chip shared L2 cache running at full processor speed, and running on the latest release of Mac OS X Leopard. The glossy 13.3-inch, widescreen LED backlit MacBook Air display is the same viewable size as the screen on MacBook. The 1280-by-800 resolution gives you vibrant images and rich colors at full brightness the moment you open MacBook Air. So you get full-screen performance with all the benefits of a slim design.
Aside from its ultrathin, ultraportable features, there are also great features:

betavoltaic-battery
Wow… I’m so impressed with this news. From U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory, we can hope for a laptop battery that can last 30 years without single recharge. These batteries generates huge amount of power in kinda nuclear style as the main energy source of these batteries are radioistopes. As any high school student can tell you radioactive material goes into continuous transformation while simultaneously emitting beta particles. The scientists claim the emitted beta particles can be transformed into electric energy to power electronic devices such as laptops for years. Though the process sound nuclear, its far from it as the batteries doesn’t use fission/fusion or chemical processes to produce energy. The reason the battery lasts so long is that neutron beta-decay into protons is the world’s most concentrated source of electricity, truly demonstrating Einstein’s theory E=MC2.

“Betavoltaics generate power when an electron strikes a particular interface between two layers of material. The Process uses beta electron emissions that occur when a neutron decays into a proton which causes a forward bias in the semiconductor. This makes the betavoltaic cell a forward bias diode of sorts, similar in some respects to a photovoltaic (solar) cell. Electrons scatter out of their normal orbits in the semiconductor and into the circuit creating a usable electric current.”
