If I were Apple, I would have dropped the 13" MacBook Air and refreshed the 11" MacBook Air. Constrain the specs to keep the 11" MBA an inexpensive lower-end machine, so it doesn't conflict with the "executive road warrior" 12" MacBook. Although, to be honest, the MacBook seems superfluous now that the 13" MBP is as thin and light as it is.

My wife has an 11" MBA and loves it. She's all about the small and light. This is her first Apple/MAC, but I think she's going on 10-15 years of 11" or smaller laptop ownership.
