A recent patent filing suggests Apple is considering making its computer enclosures from a carbon fibre-like material instead of aluminium in the future, drastically reducing weight while maintaining strength and rigidity.
Rumours of a 15 inch MacBook Air are doing the rounds, with whispers that Apple’s about to upgrade its ultraportable to the same size as the MacBook Pro, but packing much less weight.
Rumours are circulating that Apple’s creating an even lighter MacBook Air, manufactured from carbon fibre to make it even skinnier than the current Aluminium model.
