A netbook from apple would be super expensive. Anyway that product is for japan. Japanese customers really dont care about the price. Dell know that and put everymonth some expensive new stuff. Its marketing. Here, New=expensive. <br><br>And what I am earing? Low end my Vostro? come on... its an excellent computer. Absolutly no problem at all and it cost a peanut. Damn you engadget with your damn fruit addiction.<br><br>The guy next to me work on a Mac Pro quad xeon 2.6 and he is jealous of how well my machine handle after effects. once per 6 month he got a major failure, no kidding, last time his machine was 2 weeks out of order. Vostro is cheap but solid. Its not for gamers but workers concern about performance/price ratio will find its the number 1 solution. Merge it with one of the high end Dell monitor (like my 3007!), a wacom tablet and voila! ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Boards of Canada]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 7:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell rebrands its own Mini 9 as the Vostro A90, jacks the price to absurd levels]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey it reply in the wrong post... it was for the post below.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Boards of Canada]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 7:26PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell rebrands its own Mini 9 as the Vostro A90, jacks the price to absurd levels]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ye, I have a Vostro 1400 which I use heavily at school, but i use photoshop on it on a regular basis (and FYI, its 8400M version and it still works perfect even though the way i treat it should be a prime cadidate for iminante failure).<br><br>Im no fan of netbooks but the vostros are more solid, overall better units that equivelant inspirons.

Well it was sarcasm attempting to pass as humor, if that's what you mean. But sarcasm is only funny if it refers to something that's actually true. The alleged "joke" was another jab at how all Apple products are overpriced, but since that's not true, it wasn't funny.<br><br>It's amazing how some people will try to compare something as blatantly overpriced as the A90 to something like the Macbook which costs the same but is way, way better - and still try to call Macs overpriced. I mean what is it with these people, are their brains wired wrong? You have to wonder sometimes.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Zak]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Oct 24th 2008 7:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell rebrands its own Mini 9 as the Vostro A90, jacks the price to absurd levels]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/24/dell-rebrands-its-own-mini-9-as-the-vostro-a90-jacks-the-price/</guid><description><![CDATA[YOU can make it an OSX book for no extra cost.
