New MacBook Air Specs

1.4ghz chip at the low end? I suppose that explains in part where the good battery life and low cost is coming from.

I'm a little disappointed with the battery life. I recently bought a 13-inch ASUS and regularly get 12+ hours of battery life out of it. 5-7 hours sounds less than impressive especially if you are on the move/hate looking around for an outlet wherever you go. But there is no denying that the MBA looks considerably better/thinner/lighter...

How much of that time is spent computing and how much is it sitting around? Because it sounds like Apple was citing the former.
