I wanna work for the Kitchen Appliance Naming Institute. Hey, what does that do? It keeps shit fresh. Well, that's a fresher....I'm going on break.”

Mar 11th 2008 9:29AM @ CraigJ: It's paragraph, not sentence, fanboy.
@ Simon: I listed the only markets it could vaugely appeal to. (I.E. people who would want something "ultraportable" (UMPC), underpowered (Granny), or just a Mac (Graphics and Video Guys). I even tried to give it a chance with the casual user, knowing sometimes they'll buy any old piece of crap.

Mar 9th 2008 9:53PM what exactly is the target market for the Air?
If it's UMPC buyers, they failed miserably to meet their needs. it's too big.
If it's the grandma trying to e-mail her grandkids, then they missed the boat entirely. too expensive, and I doubt granny cares if it fits in an envelope.
If it's a mac power-user (aka a graphics/video guy), then the machine is severly underpowered.
Even for the casual user, there's not enough usb, no firewire, and no dvd drive.
The only concievable market is the mac fanboy then that's trying to load songs on his overpriced iPhone using terribly bloated music management software (iTunes). He's got too much of daddy's money to blow, but likes to wear zip up hoodies, graphic tees and ripped jeans to show that he can be "real" and fit in with all the normal people. He thinks that by buying a mac he's special, yet part of a wholesome family.

Mar 9th 2008 8:30PM we have a winner!
the MBA is totally impractical. Not enough features to do anything worthwhile, too big to be a real UMPC and too expensive compared to anything in either market.
I love how jobs tries to tout it's big screen as a feature. lol. that's exactly the problem: big screen = awkward to carry. I want something that's like a small novel, not something that fits in a manilla envelope...
