Go ahead, touch that MacBook Air screen
It is what you have always wanted.
13 inch mantel care with a touch screen because we have all done it we have all reached down in trying to tap or swipe on a matchbox before realizing well it mac book.
It's called the air bar, and it works by sending up a light field that your fingers break when you swipe or when you tap.
We tried a Windows version late last year.
This is a new version built specifically for the thirteen inch Mac-Book Air.
It costs ninety-nine dollars, and it's not going to confuse you into thinking that this is a true touch screen Mac-Book Air.
But you know what?
It works well enough for basic one and two finger swipes, and taps and scrolling through on web pages, it's a fun way to experience a Mac Book in a way that you have not done before.
This model is only going to work on the Mac Book here.
Because the newer MacBooks, the Pro, and the 12 inch MacBook have USB-C ports and not the USB-A port included here.
But it's still a cool way to get a taste of one of those key features that is on every Mac user's wish list.
