The MacBook Air’s thin design is causing some confusion for the technically ignorant, according to one blogger who says that the ultra-portable caused him to miss his flight. When going through the TSA airport security checkpoint, blogger Michael Nygard was held up as security staff gathered around his MacBook Air, trying to make sense of the slender laptop. One of the less technically knowledgeable staff points out the lack of standard features as cause for alarm.

If the airport security are taught (and I hope, updated with) the different forms and mechanisms of “devices” to look out for, shouldn’t they be updated with new technologies as well?
