5. mini macbook, my hunches are only based on the work related bitching i hear when my husband calls |
|
me, it's never product specific but i have a really good memory so when rumors start i try and connect some dots from the limited info i have. they are so frigging cloak and dagger there.

I LOVE my Macbook Pro as it is right now. I would, however, like a 3G iPhone with some integrated GPS capability tied to google maps...

8. As far as I am concerned |
|
it is Perfect, as is. The ONLY thing I would like to upgrade or improve is a flash based drive. But, that would mean much less storage space and much MORE money. So I can live without it for the moment.

Live blog reports say it's called the MacBook Air. Super thin -- 0.76 inches at the thickest part, and just 0.16 inches at the thinnest. Link: http://www.news.com/one-more-thing/8301-13579_3-9850085-37.html?tag=head

Although the multi-touch interface is kinda neat.
I'm happy with my MacBook Pro and iPod touch (until my verizon contract runs out, then the iPhone will be my next splurge on an Apple goodie) :)

12. Who is going to buy this $1,800.00 toy? |
|
No firewire. No optical drive. No adding RAM. No Ethernet. Only one USB port. I haven't read much, but I sure as hell wouldn't want one.

13. It's nice that we can critique Apple products w/out a certain nomadic jackass around anymore |
|
:evilgrin:
Personally, I like the MBA, but I doubt I'd buy it. Just doesn't fit my needs. I can hardly wait till the SSD drives come down in price though. :D

I get so tired of the PC/Mac debate or rather shouting match.

I like it too, but I don't see myself buying one.
I was hoping for an updated iPhone with 3G

Of course by the time that comes there will be something else
