license on PC’s and laptops as I upgrade to different devices since I
bought it like 5 years ago. Unless Windows 7 won’t run on a Macbook Air.

I guess you can blame the marketing department at Intel for that one!
The Samsung Ultrabook my mate was showing me on new years day looks similar & macbook airesque.  http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/pc-peripherals/notebook-pc/ultra-book
It comes with 2GB on board and got another 4GB for it. His model come with SSD, but it was only small as ge got a cheap model.  He stuck a hard drive in it too, he’s a Linux guy, so he was saying he cannot boot off the SSD, but I’m sure Windows 8 could do it.
