There is a hot new MacBook Air rumor that’s got the tech press all in a flutter, and get this: It’s not about a long-awaited Retina display for the MacBook Air. Instead, the rumor claims that Apple’s redesigned MacBook Air will be remarkably smaller, with a 12-inch screen — and just one port. The new MacBook Air design reportedly will drop the current MacBook Air’s USB 3 ports, as well as do away with the SDXC card slot, Thunderbolt port, and MagSafe 2 charging connection. The replacement? A single USB Type-C port.
