I just bought the MAC book AIR. Ultra thin, very sleek and light.
Even though I was very disappointed when I bought the iPhone, I still wanted to see how the Air book holds up. The battery life is starting to annoy me. Battery levels drop very quickly even though the charge takes up time. You'd think something that cost me close to 3,000$$ would be worth it.
Anyone has similar experiences?

Did you buy MacBook Air with solid state memory? Cz otherwise it doesn't cost $3,000, but is close to $1,800.

Battery on my MacBook Air lasts about 3.5 - 4 hours with WiFi on. Compared to other POSs like HP (with AMD processor) etc who start dying after 2 hours, this is pretty good.

There are software that allows an Intel-based Mac to run Windows. Boot Camp and Parallals for example. MacBook Air is based on Intel's chips, so yes, it can run Windows.
