Original MacBook Air 1.8Ghz with 64GB SSD for $1749.99

It seems there was some interest in the previous post about discounts on the original 1.6GHz MacBook Air ($1149.99).

Our affiliate partner MacMall has since notified us that they are now offering the original 1.8GHz MacBook Air with 64GB SSD drive for $1749.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate. The original price when this model was first introduced in January was near $3000.

The current price of the high end 1.86GHz MacBook Air is $2,499, but you get a larger SSD drive (128GB) and a faster graphics card.

MacRumors financially benefits from these sales, but this was also felt to be of genuine interest.

Is it really worth it given the issues that plagued the first gen models?

I think that the new graphics card is a must in light of the Air's underwhelming power...

Depending on what you do with it, the Gen 1 air is still a great deal.

I want the MacBook Air badly, but just can't justify the price considering the new macbook is not THAT much heavier.

I kinda feel the same way. Plus it's faster with a bigger hard disk and FW400... oops! No more FW on the MacBook... :p
