Rumors suggest possible black MacBook Air

Black MacBook Air, I don't think that's going to happen. Black MacBook? I don't know if it will return but I'd like it.

MacRumors are running another article suggesting that this rumour is true, in that Apple has produced black MacBook Airs, but that there were issues with the coating absorbing bodily oils such that the finish became degraded. The result of this, apparently, is that the black MacBook Airs will not be coming yet.

So; if Apple does decide to make all new Mac/iOS products in a sleek jet black (which would be AWESOME…!!!); does that mean that Black is the new, uh, Black…?!? ;^p

I want a U2 red MBA and a Petraeus Desert Camouflage MBA

Typical Apple. Instead of offering the most important option, A MATTE SCREEN, they'll dick around with colors instead.

When I heard black MBA, I immediately thought of the old rubbery black Macbooks. It wasn't necessarily a bad material/texture but if I had to choose between aluminum or the rubbery black, I'd choose aluminum. Just much smoother and nicer looking (shiny shiny). But if it's a black aluminum.... then that might look pretty sleek.

Scratches?

I've been waiting for a new black laptop from Apple... It's about time I upgrade my mid 2008 black macbook.

I want apple to have different colored Macbooks and sell them as a limited edition collection of Macbooks

Is it possible that Apple is refreshing all product lines at once this summer, coinciding with the release of 10.7, and they will all feature new jet-black appearances? Just a thought...
