MacBook Air:Enemy of AirPort Security

20080311-092813_i187photobucketcom.jpg

Airport Security officers are taking aback over the new MacBook Air and wouldn’t allow passengers to pass the gate without a thorough examination.

Their Questions:

1. Is this really a laptop?

2. If so, Where are the Ports on the back?

3. If so, How could it be so thin?

4. If so, Where would the Hard Disk be?

Only after explaining about the SSDs in layman terms would the Security Officials let go the passengers. The only concern of the security was, It could have been faked and it could contain explosives. Hmm, A reasonable explanation indeed.

If you have a MacBook Air, and are going to the airport, be there quite earlier than you are supposed to be or take a plain old laptop with you, rather than the swanky new MackBook Air.

  1. This is weird.
    The macbook air is nice, because it’s design is sleek and ergonomical. It looks really strange in gold.
