Oct. 29, 2010— -- Redbox is moving from the supermarket to your living room. The company says it is expanding to the web next year, adding to its grocery store kiosks. Redbox is hoping to keep video streaming prices on par with its $1-per-night DVD rentals.

Apple unveiled new models of its MacBook Air laptop last week. CEO Steve Jobs described it as a mix between the company's laptops and the iPad.

USA Today's Ed Baig said it's impressive but probably shouldn't be your main computer. "Overall, this is a very solid computer in a very small package," he said. "It's fast, it's snappy, it's remarkably light and thin."

Baig cautioned, however, that "it's not for everybody. Memory is limited, storage is limited. You don't have all the connectivity options that you'd have with a more expensive Mac notebook."

The new MacBook Air starts at $999.
