Supercar Aston Martin Project One-77

Aston Martin One 77

Aston Martin has released the first image of its newest flagship – the limited edition One-77. Details are scarce, but the One-77 will be powered by a hand-built 7.0-liter V12 nestled inside an aluminum and carbon fiber chassis. For comparison, a DBS performs: 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and 191mph top speed, one can only imagine how much power this latest supercar has under the hood. Aston plans to have the car completely finished by the end of this year, with sales starting in late 2009. The One-77 is expected to carry a price tag of £1 million ($1.9 million). The company has been very secretive, the only thing they show is a glimpse of the car in the website. The rests are only rumors. [One-77]

MacBook Air floats down to earth

“And then the skies parted, the angels sang, the birds twittered and down from Apple Heaven floated the MacBook Air.”

Yes…if you hadn’t guessed it…Apple just announced the MacBook Air is now shipping. It also put out word that the expected Apple TV update to let you rent HD movies is “not quite finished.” It should be available in another week or so.

“And all were happy in the Apple World.”

MacBook Air Battery Replacements: A Cinch

Air_battery.jpg

When the specs for MacBook Air came out, one of the things which displeased the many is that the MacBook Air battery was described as non-replaceable. According to sources, however, replacing a MacBook Air battery’s a cinch. All you need in your quest to battery replacement is one size-0 phillips screwdriver. Simply flip the Air over, unscrew the battery cover and then with the same tool, unscrew the battery and pull. And that’s it. Considering Apple’s MacBook Air battery replacement service costs US$129, better get yourself a Phillips screwdriver as soon as your Air arrives.
