DigiTimes has the details (and translation) on a Chinese-language Commercial Times report suggesting that Apple will sell 700,000 MacBook Air laptops during the upcoming quarter.
Commercial Times cites vice president of Concord Securities Research Mingchi Kuo as predicting the impressive sales numbers. Kuo believes that the MacBook Air, especially the 11.6-inch model, will make a compelling choice as a second computer for many. Kuo also believes that the appeal of Mac OS X 10.7 Lion will further spur sales.
Kuo formerly worked with DigiTimes and was the one to break Apple’s intentions to build an 11.6-inch laptop back in July.
