My Macbook Air screen normally only opens to just past vertical, which was a little annoying. Now it appears the hinge has snapped/broken and the screen folds almost completely flat. There are some photos of something that snapped off the hinge too.

My Macbook Air keeps warning me that the date and time is incorrect whenever I reboot after the main battery has been run completely flat. The onboard CMOS battery is at fault and Apple have acknowledged that it needs to be taken in for repair.

Thinking of buying the new Macbook Air then don’t choose Apple’s pre-configured £1799 model, pick the cheaper £1299 model and upgrade it to the same spec as the £1799 model and you will SAVE money.

There were a few problems with my new MacBook Air, when closed the aluminium bezel around the screen would scratch and leave marks on the lower casing. There was no fix for this, it was replaced under warranty. Photos included in the post.
