Fifth Avenue Apple Store has MacBook Airs

Live in New York? Want a MacBook Air? Then you’ve got no excuse not to walk run down to the Fifth Avenue Apple Store, where they have MacBook Airs! This is the first store to have been reported with MacBook Air stock, as well as them on display for use by anyone - just like all the other computers in the store. Apple Stores across the world will be receiving stock of the MacBook Air, but as usual, the flagship stores will receive stock first. So expect San Francisco, London and Tokyo stores to get them soon. And, obviously, if you pre-ordered a MacBook Air, it should be on its way already.
