The Apple Paradox

They will give you almost exactly what you want, except through in two or three things that hobble it. The Macbook Air looks beautiful, but it’s too wide, almost as expensive as a Macbook Pro, and slower than my current machine. But look at it. MmmmmmmMMMMMmmmm.

(Actually, of all the current Mac line, I think the Macbook is a wonderful little machine; it's fast, has a decent display, and is probably the first Apple laptop where you can change the memory and hard drive without having to disassemble the entire case first)

Time Capsule also looks like it might bug me. I hold out hope that wireless Time Machine will be something that they switch on for all NAS systems, and not just the Apple-branded box...
