Everybody's favorite jailbird and homemaker, Martha Stewart, has gotten herself a MacBook Air. Of course, the fanboys have already stepped in with advice (dump your HP laptop! Use Parallels!) but the interesting thing is just how much like an Apple Press release is her blog post. Check it:

I was so excited when my new MacBook Air arrived the other day. When I opened the box and examined this laptop, I was amazed by how razor thin and how light it is – just .76 of an inch and only 3 pounds. It has a full-size illuminated keyboard, which is terrific for working in a dimly lit car or on an airplane.

And I really love the trackpad, which works in much the same way as the Apple iPhone, giving you many more options by simply moving your fingers. [...]

It’s a little difficult to photograph just how thin this MacBook Air is, but you can see for yourself by stopping at an Apple store or checking it out on line at www.apple.com.

It even has the URL in there. Doesn't this sound like it was written by a PR robot? Just sayin'
