When Apple released the super slim line MacBook Air back in 2010, it was initially planned to be a three-pronged attack on the market, with an 11", 13" and 15" model of the company's thinnest notebook to date.
There can be little argument that Apple's MacBook Air line of ultra-thin, ultra-portable notebooks has been a success. Despite initial skepticism when the first 13" model launched with slow hardware and super small hard disks, the last two iterations have offered a much more robust machine.
Many people associate China with fake products that are easy to come by, but they lack a lot of tech support since they're not made by credible companies. Yet, it now seems that an official Apple Store in China has serviced a fake MacBook Air, as in: not made by Apple.
