So this year's MacWorld keynote has come and gone and what does Apple have to show for it? One ridiculously slim laptop. As expected, the new laptop "looks" phenomenal. 13.3" is a good screen size and while the memory is fixed at 2GB, that's not a huge issue for a laptop of this class. However, its lack of hard drive options is a downer (although potentially fixable) and the non-swappable battery is going to be a huge issue for a decent number of people.
In my ideal setup, I'd replace my current 15" MBP with a mid-range Mac Pro and this new MacBook Air. But realistically, that's a huuuuge chunk of change to be dropping at one time so it probably won't happen. Maybe I'll write it off as a business expense. ;-p But yeah, while it'd be nice to have one, it's not essential. Maybe I'll pick up one of the new Time Capsules instead to assuage my gadget craving. *sigh*
Ah well, now it's up to Canon to announce something irresistible to me for the PMA at the end of the month. ;-p
