Background and Identification

Apple released the updated 13" MacBook Air on March 9, 2015. The model number, A1466, remains the same as previous years, but internally the Air gets Intel's Broadwell-U dual-core processors, and a slight boost in battery life thanks to those chips' increased efficiency.
