Will Apple make a 15 inch Air?

[joehahn]

over time, the macbook pros will become close to if not as thin as the macbook air. I'm very curious as to what the next mbp form factor will be.

As an intermediate, I wouldn't mind seeing a 14" MBA....that would be ideal and very doable in the current form factor....

We already have 13.3", they just need to cut away more of that metal frame and make the display bigger.

sure they will. it's the future of notebooks.

If Apple does not do it...some other company eventually will.

I've recently seen Samsung (the 9 series) taking advantage of the MBA's lightweight and thin design, although I haven't checked the screen size or resolution on the notebook. Looks like other manufacturers are catching up to Apple after all...

I'm planning my second cross-country move this summer, and I have seriously considered switching from my 15" MBP to an Air - the only thing holding me back is the 13" screen size. If they made a 15" Air, I'd be the first one to buy it. I drool just thinking about it.

Either way, hopefully the 2012 MBPs get lightened/slimmed.

15" MacBook Pro Air

I too would love an Air (all SSD) 15". I'm sure someone could extrapolate what it could weigh. The value would be weight savings as well as speed. In the cloud driven future kicked off by the original Air, size and weight can be limited to the screen size plus the aluminum CNC'd body and a bit of PCBs.

Come on, if you don't use/need a 15" for your work you don't get it.
A 13" laptop IS NOT FOR DESIGN, ENGINEERING, FILM etc. As of now,
email writing, blog spinning and youtube surfers are getting the top of the technology line instead of the 24/7 creatives who need the badest ass
laptop ever.

Keep you 13" for playing Scrabble and FB please.

Apple, I'll prepay for mine now!!!

Oh yeah, while you're at it, anodize mine BLACK!

Everyone would like a lighter laptop. Everyone.

I highly doubt they ever make it larger than the 13.3" it defeats the purpose.

So thin and light only qualifies for 13" and under

It's a great idea to make a 15" Air... it would fly off the shelves .. so much so it would take a lot away from their 15" MBP sales.

Its more likely that they will make the MB-Pro series more "Airy".

In fact, they could introduce it for that, because Airs have an higher profit margin.
