Trying to be everything to everyone is a losing proposition. BMW doesn't try to be everything to everyone, nor does Ferrari, Lotus or even Mercedes. I think Randy hits on the exact thing.

Hopefully their is a MacBook Air in my future. It will be a nice replacement for the 12 inch Powerbook G4 I use at home now.

The only thing is the missing DVD burner, because I like to burn slideshows on my Powerbook. However, it's no major thing to buy the $100 USB Superdrive, or purchase a burner for one of the machines on my home network which would probably cost even less.

The same way I like Dodge Vipers and Porsche 928's. Amazing. Fun to look at and drool about it. But I'll never own one. Even if I could afford it. It's just not the car for me. It doesn't fit my real lifestyle (though my imaginary lifestyle drives one all the time). It's bragging rights for the vendor to hold it up as a flagship. I think the AirMac is really cool.
