New MacBook Airs with dual core i5 or i7, Thunderbolt, backlit keyboard etc on UK Apple Store. Price has also fallen slightly – entry level 11″ Air now £849 from £867.

White MacBook is gone – has it been discontinued?

OMG Apple are soooo stupid!! I didnt even know it out now!! I was searching on app store and I found it!! Apple did not even sent me the “supposed to be” email to tell me when its out!! wow! When you launch a new thing and you are pretty happy of it you tell it LOUNDLY!! I mean, they could put a big splash on the site telling “THE LION HAVE NOW WOKE UP! GET HIM RIGHT NOW”…. but no…. nothing from them lol

It’s there now. But, there’s no be splash screen for it on the App store (as of about 1 minute ago — 8:42AM EST). In fact, you have to search for it. LOL! For all the hype, it’s about the softest launch I’ve ever seen.

The UK Apple Store is down with a message displaying “We’ll Be Back Soon”. So if Lion is to come out in the UK at 13:30 (15 mins) will the rumored new Mac Mini and/or MacBook Air becoming out along beside it? or maybe even a new MacBook Pro?

I was told that too Jason; new MBP 13 bought in June. I called Apple Support and they said just go onto App store and download it for free. Apparently it will know by the serial number.
