MacBook Air sparks terrorist alert in Airport

Well, here it is, proof that the MacBook Air is in fact, not a real notebook.

Picture the scene ; you’re in the airport, going through security to board your flight. You put your shoes and carry-on in the tray. As is normal procedure, you take out your laptop and put it in a separate tray and walk through.

To your surprise, the TSA (Transportation Security Administration) ask you to step aside so they can examine this so called “laptop” you have with you.

According to Engadget, airport security couldn’t believe that the MacBook Air was a real laptop.

Boggled by the lack of ports at the back and the absence of an optical drive, airport security huddled around, suspicious of the thinnest laptop ever.

While the traveller’s flight was boarding and taking off, he was with security trying to explain to staff that there wasn’t anything untoward about the Air, except perhaps the fact that it doesn’t have a drive. . .

Eventually a tech-savvy member of the TSA (or you know, someone who doesn’t live under a rock and is actually allowed leave the airport every once and a while) explained that the MacBook Air is actually real and not some kind of terrorist trickery. . .

We’re fairly sure it’s got nothing to do with terrorism but we’re not sure about it being a real laptop. . .
