If it is Macbooks (and I just refreshed the US Apple Store to make sure it isn't yet), I'm buying one. But not for me personally. I'm going to bring my grandparents into the digital age with it -- depending, of course, on price and specs. For $999 with an integrated iSight (integrated graphics are almost a given, and I don't care either way), I'm sold. If it costs more than that or comes with less, I'm going to have to rethink. My generosity only extends so far.
My sister just got her first Apple computer, an Intel iMac, and she found it so easy to set up that I thought she made a good trial run for my grandparents' potential experience. They've never touched a computer, but my grandmother likes the idea of e-mail (and a softer keypad than her typewriter), and my grandfather is the sort of guy who would spend hours on HowStuffWorks.com. So, yeah, I'm buying. With provisions.
