exactly.

Styfle, the MacBook Air is their netbook.

the $999 MacBook is a great laptop. Sure, apple could make a cheaper notebook or netbook, but then that's just what it would be - cheap. It would run Leopard like crap, and make the user experience generally frustrating. It would defeat the whole purpose of owning an apple product. That's why iPhone and iPod touch have an OS BASED on OSX, and not OSX.
