The next MacBook Air?will sport a twelve-inch screen, a thinner and smaller physical footprint, a cleaner chaotic with one combined power connector and USB port, faster Broadwell chipsets from Intel, and it might even come in Space Grey.?That?s?the theory from Marc Gurman, and there?s?no immediate reason to discount it.
