Next MacBook Airs to have Thunderbolt, i5 and Sandy Bridge processors


Ming-Chi Kuo (yes, the guy who told us about the iPhone 5), says that Apple is revealing new MacBook Airs next month. These MacBook Airs will have a Thunderbolt port, integrated Intel graphics, and this amazing line-up of dual-core Sandy Bridge processors:

11.6" models- 1.4 or 1.6 GHz Sandy Bridge i5
13.3" models- 2.1 or 2.3 GHz Sandy Bridge i7

These flash-memory computers actually ran fast on Core 2 Duo processors. Now on a Sandy Bridge i5 or i7? Holy cow.
