The 11" MacBook Air features a 1.7 GHz processor, 4GB of memory and is available with 64GB of flash storage starting at €1,050, and 128GB of flash storage starting at €1,150. 

Its 13" counterpart comes with a 1.8 GHz processor, 4GB of memory and is available with 128GB of flash storage starting at €1,238, and 256GB of flash storage starting at €1,548.
