How dense are you exactly? Thinnest, yes. But powerful?? You are totally
totally clueless. Even the other Apple fanboys will be embarrassed.

but only Apple was able to help Intel engineers in producing such a
small chip, thus they have exclusive rights to this chip until fall.

Have you even seen the Keynote where the Intel CEO bows to Steve Jobs?

Learn a little will you?

http://www.apple.com/quicktime/qtv/keynote/

Intel has to bend over backwards to Apple's demands or risk the loss of
the golden Apple account which they have spent nearly 30 years to win.

Apple controls Intel like a pure Puppet.

We all know that.

Penryn doesn't seem feasible in it's current form factor. Only Apple can
help Intel make it successful, so we'll see it once Apple releases the
first version of this chip.

Otherwise, traditional PC vendors will be stuck with it.

I think you are Jealous of the MacBook Air. Have you even seen the
Keynote that was given? or the Guided Tour Video, much less touched one?

I've done them all.......

I think you are mad that you are now about 4 years behind the curve with
nobody on the PC side to help you out. You'll get a MacBook Air in due
time. You can bank on it.

Watch the Keynote, PLEASE... put yourself out of your misery.

LOL what an idiot!! Yes, you can install software and everything, dumbo. A
networked optical drive acts no differently than a local one, retard, except
that it is usually slower (but probably not on wired gigabit network - not
benchmarked on mine).

This wireless Renote Disk offers nothing that could have been done since
wireless first came out, apart from being spoonfed to n00bs. Nothing new.
Can you understand this past the marketing spin that has blinded you. What
do you think you can do with this that you cannot so woth networked drives??

Are you new to computers? I really think you are. What is so amazing? You
do know that all this Macbook is, is a thin computer? The trackpad gestures
is the only thing that impressed me above anything I have seen before, when
I saw those videos a few days ago.

By the way, I was using Macs with System 7, and the first computer I ever
used was my father's Apple IIe clone, in the early 80's.

Of course he is jealous.
The same thing happened when the iPhone was released.
The Linux kooks went on a jamboree claiming th iPhone was/is and will
always be a failure and that some Linux powered brick, whose name I can't
remember and neither can anyone else, would be the future of phones.

It's the same old trash from the Linux kooks.

You're ignorance is amazing. All Thinkpads have had lights that light up
the keyboard for years. They are called ThinkLights. Having used
Powerbooks and Thinkpads, the more general light of the ThinkLight is
certainly more natural and easier, in my personal opinion.

And nobody that knows anything about laptops is going to back you up saying
that the typing quality of Macbook keyboards is anything as good as Thinkpad
keyboards, which are widely known to be the best. Seriously, just ask
anybody that actually has used them. Even Mac owners will tell you. I
really do not like the chiclet keyboards on recent VAIOs and Macbooks, and
Macbook Pro keyboards are not a lot better.

And the fact that you think that that an ultraportable like the Macbook Air
is especially powerful, is even more laughable.

Yup. My X30 still turns heads. I currently have Ubuntu on it but will
probably move to Debian Lenny soon.

Lovely little beasties the X series.

You are very stupid little Apple fanboy with limited knowledge. You talk
absolute rubbish. I know many other Apple enthusiasts, but none as clueless
as you. I'll save my energy for those I have more respect for.

If Apple users would learn to touch-type, they wouldn't need a

oh my god you are dumb!

i'm talking about the "individual keys" not the silly keyboard. anybody
can do that, but only Apple holds the patent to light up the "key".
Learn about technology would you?

no other vendor is allowed to do this:

ah, but the Apple Keyboards have passed ThinkPad key/feel about 6 years
ago, gosh, you still want to play dumb don't you...

ThinkPads keyboards are near the middle of the pack now, Apple at the
top since they actually work on building the best. Leveno has given up
against Apple.

never have seen a mac user hunt and peck, they are better educated than
most any computer user. i think you mean if mac users were "less
affluent" they wouldn't desire such high quality features.

it's really amazing when you use it day to day.

pc users have no understanding of modern computing features, so they
always are jealous it seems.

yes, and now the iPhone has gone on to be one of the best selling Cell
Phones of all time, and the BEST selling SmartPhone of all time.

gosh, they don't even have a clue about what a quality product can do!

things like skyhook now in the iPhone completely change the game for all
cell carriers!

okay, then show us a more powerful Intel chip in a thinner laptop.

bet you can't!

thus my facts stand.

(you might want to learn about the industry before you post again) your

Then why do they get so excited over a silly lighted keyboard? :)

You DO realize that keyboards with lighted keys have been around for
years? They're mostly purchased by kids who want to make their
computers look kewl.

Here we have the "social elite" Mac user stereotype. Bill Gates
is the richest guy on the planet, yet he uses something else.
So much for that theory.

People from all different backgrounds, educational levels and
wealth figures own both macs and PCs. Trying to pretend that
owning one makes you extra special, extra-smart or extra-wealthy
doesn't make your argument more compelling. Quite the opposite.

> it's really amazing when you use it day to day.


I have a MBP with it, and I don't find it amazing at all. In
fact, I have it set to 0% so it doesn't just waste battery
clicking on/off when you move your hands over the sensors in
normal use in moderately low light conditions.

> pc users have no understanding of modern computing features, so they
> always are jealous it seems.


And pathetically bad Mac advocates can't stop trying to play
amateur psychologist in an attempt to find cause to cover up the
underlying insults when they stereotype PC users.

Both platforms have tradeoffs, as does Linux. There is no
perfect piece of computing hardware, and there is no perfect OS.
It's all about preference. Currently, I prefer OS X to the
alternatives, but I also see and recognize that others have
different needs and expectations. As such, I'm not compelled to
insult them, or impugn their motivations for using other
products.
