The <a href="http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/MacBook-Air-11-Inch-Model-A1370-Teardown/3745/1" target="_blank">write up</a> is three pages filled with photographs, beginning with what is in the box and then at each step of the tear down. It always amazes me how they are able to cram so much technology into such a small package. Interesting article if you have been wondering, like me, just how Apple was able to do it.</p>
