Problem: Your customers are screaming for a consumer headless tower (like a modern Cube).
Solution: Introduce the Mac Mini with laptop hard drive and no real internal expandability. But hey, it can fit in the palm of your hand (does anybody do this with their desktop computer?).
Problem: Your customers are screaming for a sub-notebook (like a modern 12" Powerbook only thinner and lighter).
Solution: Introduce the MBA that is smaller than the Macbook in one dimension is missing many standard ports, and doesn't have an optical drive. But hey, it can fit in a manilla envelope (does anybody do this with their laptop?).
