Price drops on MacBook Air, Pro

CNET - Apple's MacBook Air is getting cheaper at retailers, following earlier discounts on the MacBook Pro. This would almost lead you to think that resellers are making room for new models. Well, actually that does appear to be the case for the MacBook Air.

Best Buy now lists the low-end 11.6-inch MacBook Air "on sale" for $938.99, while Mac Connection has it for $948.49. That model comes with the Intel 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo Processor, 2GB Memory, and a 64GB flash drive. Apple sells this configuration for $999.
