CUPERTINO, Calif. – Apple is launching two new MacBook Air ultralight laptops.
One has a screen that's 13.3 inches diagonally. The second has an 11.6-inch screen. Prices start at $999.
Like the past generation, the MacBook Air can't read CDs or DVDs. This one also doesn't have a hard disk drive. Instead, it uses all flash memory, like the iPhone does.
Apple also announced a new version of its operating system, called Mac OS X Lion, that will include a store for Mac software. It's similar to the iTunes store that sells apps for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
It is adding FaceTime video chatting to Macs. That feature debuted this summer on the iPhone 4.
