This is probably the best bang for the buck. 1 TB server-grade storage with a wireless router for $500? Sign me up! Totally worth it for a base station.

If this also works with PCs, I'm in.

Yeah and it's gonna suck when that battery dies too...

Sealed harddrive, no way to increase RAM? No thanks.

One of the reasons I didn't buy a Mac when I was shopping laptops recently is because of how thin and flimsy Macbooks are. I wanted a substantial size and thickness in my machine.

Hmm yeah I wonder? I'd guess there wouldn't be PC-dedicated Time Machine software for PC, but it might still work as a wireless 'server' I guess.

This, to me too, was the best announcement from the keynote. Glossed over in a few minutes, too.

Getting rid of the old 12" Powerbooks was a mistake IMO. they were superb machines which were genuinely usable, workhorseable and compact.

I'm typing on one right now. I agree the 12's were great.

There are companies in baltimore with enough scratch for this kind of thing? Damn, I moved too soon.

Those little nilla wafers sure look cool. I wan't one... I'm in debt, so I won't get one. Drat.

Was a thinner Macbook really in demand? The only time my Macbook doesn't have damn near every port used up is when I'm surfing for the articles.
