Though the competition has certainly heated up since the last generation of MacBook Air - the Asus Zenbook and Lenovo U300 stand near the top of the ultrabook pack, but there are a number of good options - Apple's hardware is still hard to beat.įrom design touches to colors to features, the Air is virtually unchanged.
