Does no one remember 1999?
*everything* in the entire world that was made of plastic all the sudden was translucent and bondi blue. Then of course a year later everything was translucent and some fun color.
The look of a mac may not effect you, but then it can effect the entire world around it.
Robert, Im really missing the point of your thoughts on the new Macbook. You can't apply your individual needs to any one product? I could just change a few words and give you that same argument back:
Look at the new Corvette. I haul plywood and tow a boat regularly. This design interferes with my daily driving because it won't do both. As a primary car it isn't workable. To make it workable it would need a bed and more low end torque. etc. Im now under the assumption that all Chevy products are going this way...
Don't get me wrong, I do agree that the lack of internal upgradeability is a big black mark, but there are solutions to remedy some of these. maybe not the most elegant or built in, but they are there.
A new MB would be ideal for my wife. With minimal ram and storage even. Its far more powerful than her current 2008 iMac, which only has a 320 GB drive about half full. And a HUGE portion of that is photos from her iPhone. She never plugs anything into it except power. Wireless net, wireless printing, dropbox, pandora and flickr. No local storage necessary.
Please post long rebuttal. =)
