*all of the following statements are opinions of iamtko and are not stated to offend anyone that actually likes that P.O.S.*

i think that the MacBook Air is so highly unpractical that it was fail and Steve Jobs will lose his mind. i can just see him saying over and over "BUT IT FITS IN AN ENVELOPE!!!".

reasons i will not buy it:
- no optical drive (my favorite): what am i supposed to do without this?? oh i know, i'll just spend $99 to lug around a separate O.drive! this means that i'll also need to get another case of some sort(or maybe a backpack..) to carry all this crap in. sure the thing is small but it gains its weight back in other things i'd have to carry around! also, i like burning things for my friends because they need to know what their missing in music :P

- 1 usb port: really? one? ok well i guess i won't be charging my PSP/DS/iPhone/iPod all at the same time anymore..

- this thing is too thin: sure it looks amazing but i really think it'll be a problem for everyday use. i think the macbook pro is the perfect size and has enough durability so i don't have to be super careful while typing.

- just another step between me and my music: if i did get this, it would be my only computer so i would have to use it for my iTunes for both my iPod and iPhone. do you know how much fun it will be uploading all my music, from CD's back onto this thing?? not fun. i would have to shell out the money just to have my iTunes updated with music i already own! now maybe if apple sent someone to your house to upload the hours of music onto it, i might buy it. no, i wouldn't actually.

there are more reasons but i really don't feel like typing anymore.
i just remember how hard i laughed when job's said he would get rid of the CD. /sigh
