Oh S O F I, you don't hate Apple. It's something else..
Your first post is actually the only one in this thread besides mine that makes sense - and my reply to it made further sense. It's smart marketing to keep things simple, but enough about that.
Jeremy, you'd boycott touchscreen because you are so used to using keys and a mouse - in the future, everyone will be touching screens but you'll be stuck with a touchpad - the old fashioned way. HA
Apple products aren't that overpriced in my opinion. $170 is the estimated cost to manufacture one 8GB iPhone 3G. Lenovo IdeaPad is a comparable laptop to the MacBook Air and the IdeaPad will run you about the same as the Air. Just because you can get a laptop for $600 - that doesn't make Macs overpriced or lets you have the magic power to compare your inferior machine to any Mac.
Prize Gotti - the network you use on your Windows based machine is the same network I use on a Mac. That just comes down to preference - and speaking of that - all software has flaws so they all suck ass.
