| Mark Guertin >"And who's want's and need will those be? Yours or mine? This laptop is what I want and need. It's what, based on initial orders, 10's of thousands of people want or need. Apparently it's not what you want or need, but that doesn't mean that for the most part, they didn't get it right. By the way, if something is truly revolutionary, it's revolutionary whether is costs $1 or $1,000,000. Just some food for thought. " I agree that if something is revolutionary that the value is much greater, but my point here is that I don not think this machine is revolutionary. It is light, it is sexy and it is fast. But it also does not address a large piece of the mac market that it very easily could have (adn still get the people that want big bad and sexy). As I stated in a previous discussion post, and Kevyn also said is that if they had another smaller version of this machine they would have sold a _lot_ more and made a lot more users happy. Just how much extra do you thik it is for Apple (re the users) to get those new non-standard displays made vs. using a 13" or 14.1" tft like everyone else? |
