There’s rumor that Apple will be releasing an 11.6-inch Macbook Air in September, which could be the first “netbook” from Apple. According to the source, Apple would shrink from a 13.3-inch display of the Macbook Air to 11.6 inches and would use Intel’s newer ultra-low voltage Core iX processors, which while slower are inexpensive enough that they have reached inexpensive systems like the Acer TimelineX, which costs as little as $600 for a Core i3 system. If that’s true, there’s the issue of what graphics could be used – Nvidia licensing prevents use of some integrated graphics chips with recent Intel processors.
