That was unexpected…..
…..It would've been really funny if he had wanted it on a Samsung laptop.
This is a pretty good analogy, I'd say. Sony, at one point, was a company that made high-end but not exclusionary, beautifully designed, easy-to-use, category-defining products that a lot of people bought and loved. They seemed to really care about what they were building and how it worked.Sony IS kind of like Apple gone wrong if you think about it.
Vaio is actually pretty good as a laptop, for a Windows machine.
Sony IS kind of like Apple gone wrong if you think about it. The Walkman was the iPod of its day, and they've always had gorgous industrial design. In a perfect world, they'd have made a great fit with Apple, back in the day.
I call ******** on that.
Back then the mainstream OS X was still running on PPC. I remember there were lots of posts from folks here giving all kinds of technical reasons why OS X could never physically run on x86 PCs.
Then came speculation that OS X could maybe run on an x86, in theory, but Apple would never let that happen because it was a huge step backwards, how superior the G5 chip was, and boy, once that PowerBook G5 came out (yeah, I went there ) how it would smoke the Intel Centrino competition.
Then came the rumors that, indeed, not only was OS X on intel possible, but it was already working and a full on switch was going to happen. And again, lots of naysayers.
Yet here we are...
So I've learned to never say never.
Well then you dont know ****.
Steve has always liked Sonys design language. He also used a Vaio Laptop when he came back to Apple because he thought Apples products were inferior then.
Also look at the macbook air introduction. He compared it to a Sony Vaio Laptop calling it the best and thinnest in the pc (Windows) market.

except it was 2001, Samsung was not the Samsung of today.
What are your thoughts on OS X on ARM?

the high end vaios are great.
before geting my rmbp was a fight between the vaiop and rmbp.
rmbp won because it was slightly cheaper.
