Toxic Free Macbook Air - Eco Friendly Product

The toxic free macbook air is the ultra thin and ultra portable Macintosh notebook computer designed by Apple. It is described as the world's thinnest notebook and the first laptop with aluminum unibody enclosure. The free macbook air has been revised twice ever since it has been launched. The first time it was revised the company introduced faster performance and a larger hard drive with a mini DIV port. The second revision of this product brought in faster performance at lower price and longer battery life.

Free macbook air is known for being the thinnest and the lightest notebook. It weighs 3 pounds which is ultra portable compared to all the other laptops and notebooks in the market. In order to make this notebook ultra thin and lightweight, several features have been sacrificed. It is Apple's first notebook without the inbuilt removable media drive; it does not have the fire wire port, Ethernet port, and Kensington security port slots. Apple Macbook air battery, which is the heart of the notebook, is enclosed within the case and is not user-removable. Even though it is possible to remove and replace the battery using screwdrivers, it is not clear if it will be a violation of the warranty terms. Apple offers replacement of the battery under warranty service but for a price.

Since its launch this notebook has been getting both positive and negative responses from its users. It was praised for its portability and lightweight but was criticized for lacking some of the features mentioned earlier. It was also criticized for non-replaceable batteries, small drive, and its price. Some of the free macbook air users have been having problems with CPU lockup caused due to overheating of the mechanisms.

The free macbook air has several features in the design that makes it an environmental friendly product. The fact that it is toxic free makes it more valuable in the market. Apple believes and takes full responsibility of environmental management by making sure their products are manufactured with toxic free materials which could be recycled. The macbook air has been manufactured using aluminum which can be easily recycled. The packaging materials of the macbook-air are also made from recycled materials. Apple has taken a long-term stand in restricting the use of harmful substances in its products and packaging.

Therefore the toxic free macbook air enclosed in aluminum unibody is the thinnest notebook that you can carry effortlessly wherever you please. The fact that it has no user replaceable parts could be disappointing for some.
