It's MacBook Air Day here at Whiskey Media! I don't think I've ever seen Norm so excited about anything.

Expect an actual Quick Look soon from Norm and Will over at Tested!

I'm sure Jeff is some sort of secret lottery millionaire.

What you mean secret. He has a stash of gold shorts.

When you're single and have a decent job, you tend to have spending money. It's amazing I know.

You guys must forget that he is a retired legendary mic rocker. He's got millions, if not billions.

Yeah being able to spend 1000+ dollars on a new laptop (that norm will only use for half a year according to the video) sounds insane to me also, then again I am a college student too.

Do Norm & Will get free shit from companies? They can't be buying all that crap from their own back-pocket?

Jeff has often said that things he buys for gaming are tax write-offs, but I can never tell when he is and isn't joking. I'd love to buy a 3D TV and deduct it.

Dropping a grand on something extremely useful like a laptop every once in a while really isn't that big of a deal once you get a regular paycheck. It's not like they are out doing this every day.

Either they can expense it for work or it's just a computer purchase that they'd make every few years, which is the case for Jeff and maybe Norm.

Yeah, I guess so. I remember hearing that Jeff's old Macbook was really fucking old, so it makes sense.

I'm not going to lie - those MacBooks look nice! Admittedly I'd have plumped for the Pro if I had the money for an Apple laptop, because it's called the Pro. But if anyone wants to donate me one I'd be happy with either. By the way, did Jeff go for the 15" or the 17"? I can definitely see it's the bigger of the two, but I'm curious as to which size so I can compare the prices on Apple's UK store.

I see a lot of work being done on those things. For trial and for error and for real.

Norm has it completely right. You keep the box for the resale price. Same thing with sneakers.

I heard people mentioning Canadian English in the background.

In my experience, if you pick Canadian, it changes the keyboard so that it has all the crazy french accents more accessibly, which makes terrible things happen if you are used to a standard keyboard layout.

Never pick Canadian English. It's really Canadian French.

The launch of the Mac Mini made me almost buy it, but I ended up building my own HTPC instead. I got a 2.6ghz Sandy Bridge CPU and 8GB of RAM for 40 % lower price than the entry Mini at 2.3ghz and 2GB RAM.
