The Apple fan boys will on this Laptop's nuts.

Ultra unlike anything else? More like ultra expensive paperweight. What's the point of having a laptop .4 in thinner than everyone else's? Maybe it's a businessman thing, like the opposite of the universal penis size debate.

what are you talking about, who needs a CD drive when your at the coffee shop looking trendy and checking your myspace.

That is exactly all it's good for. For a while, I really wanted to try a Mac computer, but after having a piece of shit iPod and seeing how specialty/trendy consumer driven they are, I think I'll stick to PC.

Practical Function > Me paying for iTunes

so you need another computer with a CD drive? bwahaha

Not if you buy all your music from iTunes and programs are actually sold on flash drives like they will probably be in the near future once the prices drop a good bit more. But of course, that is a few years off and Apple jumped the gun on this.

Oh, and we all know how long Apple's batteries last.

1/2 Year After you purchase your MacBook Air-

TigerBass: "I need to buy a new battery, this one doesn't work anymore"

Douchey Apple Technician: "We don't just sell new batteries, we have to replace it for you."

TB: "Give me the battery, I'll do it myself"

DAT: "I'm sorry, that will void your warranty. Did you happen to purchase the Upkeep Plan when you bought your laptop?"

TB: "No, it was $200. And what do you mean it will void my warranty?"

DAT: "Well, without the Upkeep Plan, it's going to cost you $300 to change the battery, we will probably lose most the information on your computer on "accident", and you won't have your laptop for 2 weeks"

TB: "You you kidding me. Fuck this."

DAT: "Have a nice day!"

Yeah, they pretty much haven't changed that up any.

But batteries are gonna be $129 with free install...you still have to surrender your machine though.

And I don't know if it's just the Apple stores around here, but everyone in them is so fuckin' smug. Every last person, from the technicians, to the managers, and the people shopping in them.
