Despite its magnificent beauty we all know that as laptop owners of the modern world that the MacBook Air is well lacking in features. Here is a funny little thing someone made to express how they felt about the MacBook Air. I would personally add two more things in the favor of the MacBook 1. Its a laptop 2. Its fast(er)

To me it's sad that we are so wasteful as people to drop $2500 on something you're gonna be replacing, or sending in for repairs, within two years cause it's not built to last. So Sad sad.gif

I read somewhere that Macbook AIR is not a good choice at the moment....that the features and capabilities are limited other products from mac are better and cost less than this new product...the conclusion of that article that I cannot remember was that we need to wait till a second improved version comes out and avoid purchasing this one till then.

Apple has got too into its "We must be uber sexy" mindset. If it's not scratch-prone, stripped-down, overpriced crapware, it's definitely not sexy.

People who use Apple tend to think nothing of spending a lot of money on a machine that "just works" for a specific set of functions. I wouldn't say Macs are "crapware" since, especially in the context of Artician, Macs are great for design; and generally speaking, the OS has the potential to do pretty much anything but the only way it can achieve that is through XP VMare. Macs on their own are fairly limited, unfortunately.

Which is why I would much rather have an overall better machine for everything. Once you get a decent rig, it doesn't really matter that it runs slightly better on a mac.
