What will be left after the first week? I have visions of these lappies without their screens, motherboard, hard drive, keyboard, battery, etc., within two weeks... soon, I wonder what people will think when people will see when they see bare HP Pavilion, Dell XPS, and Sony VAIO chassis sitting on small tables in front of a Windows 7 display. The former Duncan Hines Brand Manager (a.k.a. Steve Ballmer) won't be proud, but at least he won't mess up those laptops with his cheeseburger... because there's no components!

And I happen to like Saks for their fragrance selection (albeit in the Indianapolis store)...]]>Nov 25th 2009 9:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/11/25/microsoft-opens-pc-lounge-in-saks-fifth-avenue-for-holiday-seaso/http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/25/microsoft-opens-pc-lounge-in-saks-fifth-avenue-for-holiday-seaso/
Thanks, but what does that have to do with anything? Apple is now selling iPhones in Tesco's. Isn't this "fishing for customers".

OK, I'm done here. You need help. You feel you need to defend all things Apple. How you believe this article hurts Apple is beyond me. Cause hey we all know Apple really cares about it's customers. Hey, how goes that DOA iMac.
