Apple MacBook Air 13-inch (Thunderbolt)

When the Apple MacBook Air debuted, its incredibly thin profile made it stand out in a sea of ultraportables. Since then, it has been surpassed by Windows systems with more features and faster performance. All that's changing with the Apple MacBook Air 13-inch (Thunderbolt) ($1,299 direct). In the latest iteration of the MacBook Air, Apple flushed out the dated Core 2 Duo CPU in favor of an Intel Core i5 processor (albeit a low-voltage model), brought back the backlit keyboard, and added a Thunderbolt bolt port. And to sweeten the pot, it comes with the recently introduced Mac OS X Lion. With these updates, the Air 13-inch (Thunderbolt) is poised to make a big run in the ultraportable space.

Samsung NP700Z5B-W01UB

The Samsung NP700Z5B-W01UB ($1,019 list at Best Buy) has an attractive chassis that will appeal to designers and fans of the Apple MacBook Pro 15-inch (Thunderbolt) ($2,199 direct, 4 stars), but without the premium price tag. Its AMD Radeon GPU and Core i7 CPU have the chops to take on games, day-to-day productivity tasks, and Photoshop editing as well as video manipulation. Wireless features, like Wireless Display 2.0 (WiDi 2.0) and WiMAX 4G broadband, will appeal to entertainment aficionados and road warriors—further adding to its value. But if you place raw horsepower above added features, there are better options.

Click.to

One of the more interesting consequences of the touchcreen revolution is the way that developments in smartphones and tablets are bleeding over into more traditional hardware and software. Click.to is a program designed to mimic in standard PCs (and Macs) the ease with which people can share content from a touch screen. In practically any app for smartphones and tablets, you can press a single button to share something on Facebook, or email a photo, or otherwise copy and paste content from one application to another. Why shouldn't we have this functionality on our plain old laptops and desktops?
A 1TB hard drive running at 7,200 rpm, the Western Digital Caviar Black ($79.99 list) comes with a 64MB cache and runs through a 6Gb/s SATA connection. The disk also packs features like dual actuator technology, NoTouch ramp loading and a dual processor among other technologies.
