Earlier in March, a blogger was stopped by TSA agents at the security checkpoint from boarding the flight, being wary of the so-far-unseen MacBook Air, that they mis-identified as suspect object. Later on, the administration responded, giving MacBook Air the green light, and promised to try and X-ray a MacBook Air.
True to their word, the TSA has announced that they have indeed X-rayed an Air, and published a video for all the Apple-loving readers clearly wanting to gaze in awe at an X-ray of Cupertino’s finest. By now you’re wondering: “Why on earth is this posted here at Download Squad. I don’t want to see no photos of a MacBook Air!”. So here’s where this tale takes a rather ironic turn: the video’s certainly online, but for Mac-using fans (arguably the main target audience of the video) it’s something of a non-starter because the video can only be found in the most Mac-incompatible format known to man: Windows Media Video - the antithesis of Mac-friendliness, surely?
If you want to watch the video, first download Flip4Mac QuickTime components from Microsoft, and head-over to the TSA blog.

Lol, how ironic that Mac would only let you view it with Mac’s video player. MacBook Air is amazing, just the tech specs aren’t quite what I would like, but I gotta watch this video! Never seen a computer x-rayed before! Thanks for the post!
