This is the BEST auctioned MacBook Air on eBay, and here is why:
NO DEAD PIXELS:
Non-color calibrated displays drive me mad. However, nothing makes me more insane than staring at dead pixels. This known, rest assured, that this MacBook Air has not a SINGLE dead pixel. Nada!
SCREEN WILL SHIP COLOR-CALIBRATED -- FREE!:
Like I said, a LED LCD display that is not color-calibrated drives me mad. Your MacBook Air will ship with a clean, original, new install of Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard. However, unlike a default factory-install, I will use my professional-quality
X-Rite i1Display 2 color-calibrator to create the best monitor profile possible for the MacBook Air. This means you'll have consistent, predictable color on your MacBook Air. Your eyes can not create such an accurate profile. Only my expensive, under-used, bought-on-a-whim for-a-moment-like-this professional color-calibrator can do this. Best of all, I'll take my sweet time to create this profile for you, TOTALLY FREE. If you're completely bonkers and don't want me to do this, then go buy someone elses colorblind MacBook Air....
I don't sell crap. Color-calibration is FREE, so just take it!
You don't have to use the color profile if you don't want. When you get the MacBook Air, you can use the default, poorly-calibrated profile that comes with all MacBook Air's when they leave the factory -- just don't tell me!
OVER $90 WORTH OF EXTRAS FOR FREE!:
If you missed reading it above. You also get a neat looking Incase MacBook Air Neoprene Sleeve Carrying Case, Electric Sheep install and FREE Shipping, Tracking, Insurance and Signature delivery confirmation!
ELECTRIC SHEEP FRACTAL SCREEN SAVER -- FREE install & setup:
Yes, that's right! The
Electric Sheep Fractal Screen Saver that every hip Mac user is talking about comes installed on this MacBook Air for free. If you haven't heard, Electric Sheep is an awesome open source fractal screen saver created by Scott Draves and is used by thousands of people all over the world. While your MacBook Air computer's screen "sleeps", the screen saver comes to life and communicates with other computers running Electric Sheep by the internet. Together they "dream" or share the work of creating morphing abstract animations known as "sheep". Anyone watching one of these computers with Electric Sheep may vote for their favorite animations using the keyboard. The more popular sheep live longer and reproduce according to a genetic algorithm with mutation and cross-over. Hence the flock evolves to please its global audience. You can also design your own sheep and submit them to the gene pool. Left to its own, the Electric Sheep Fractal Screen Saver program would normally take days to download and generate each sheep but lucky for you, I've already loaded 240 sheep variations so you don't have to! You'll be able to enjoy over 1GB of pure mesmerizing bliss right off the bat! If you want a taste of things to come,

MORE TRUTHFUL DETAILS:
This MacBook Air notebook was purchased directly from the Apple Store for $1,799.00 plus tax about a year ago and has been taken well care of since then. The extra bonus MacBook Air accessories and shipping/insurance alone costs a whopping $90.00+. I'm a clean freak so I've NEVER eaten while using the notebook (SICK!) Nor have I let it go more then a week without dusting it off with compressed air or GENTLY wiping the beautiful glossy LED LCD screen down with approved Apple cleaning cloths. I ALWAYS wash and scrub my hands before using the notebook. I also have a strong dislike for cigerettes and cigerette smoke (
NO STANKYOU!) so this MacBook Air is second-hand smoke free!
In addition, the MacBook Air for this auction includes Apple's fabulous Mac OS X Leopard operating system on DVD, software, user manuals, product packaging, shipping box and extras. The notebook has been returned to it's original condition using the included "MacBook Air Install/Restore" DVD discs and upgraded to Snow Leopard. It also has all the latest operating system updates and patches, driver/software updates installed. The notebook will be charged and ready to go when you take it out of its original MacBook Air box!
I also have a twin MacBook Air I'm auctioning off that closes on Sunday so if you miss the closing of this MacBook Air auction on Saturday, November 7, 2009 at 6 PM Pacific Standard Time, you can always catch my other auction that closes the following day on November 8, 2009 at
7 PM Pacific Standard Time. For those that are curious, I have two MacBook Air notebooks because I use one at my office and the other at home. I'm selling them both because I would like to get an iMac so I can work from home. If you're still on the fence, I encourage you to read
my eBay feedback.
