Interesting post on the packaging of the new MacBook Air by Jason D. O'Grady that appeared on ZDNet. "One thing that Jobs touted about the MacBook Air during Macworld Expo was the diminutive size of the packaging, so I decided to compare the boxes of the MacBook Air, MacBook and MacBook Pro–stacked top to bottom below."
* MacBook Air (MBA)–12.25 x 14.25 x 2.25-inches–393 cubic inches
* MacBook (MB)–15.5 x 14.75 x 3.25–743 cu. in.
* MacBook Pro (MBP)–16.5 x 15.5 x 3.25–831 cu. in.
"As you can see from the photos the MacBook Air box is smaller in overall dimensions than the MBP and MB boxes and is almost half the volume of the MacBook box, which should make the people at Greenpeace a little happier."
Jason is right the packaging for the new Air is almost half the size of the MacBook packaging and it should help Apple's ratings on Greenpeace's green computing index and their "Green my Apple" campaign
Sustainable is Good contacted Apple for details on the Air packaging however did not receive a response to multiple inquiries.
