Is this like a Tarantino thread or something. Where's Robert Rodriguez?
Hey I personally don't want to sacrifice screen space, but I do want to jettison weight. MBA does both. Light, thin, productive, yet functional. Do I need to carry a DVD drive, ethernet dongle, usb hub, etc. No. Just the MBA and the power cord. I wish I was getting one, maybe rev. B, probably refurb whether rev. A or rev. B, so for me it will be some time. But since I have a gorgeous 2.8Ghz 24" iMac, that MBA makes a great second machine. The MacBook makes less sense since it is heavier and I don't like the white. A BlackBook with 2GB RAM is $150 less than an MBA. So it's a fairly easy call. And I like the backlit keyboard.
