Live Coverage of Apple's 'Back to the Mac' Media Event

1.4 ghz, are you kidding me, are u ****ing kidding me.

Steve on the ipad launch bashed netbooks for being slow, then he releases "next gen" macbooks with 2gb ram, and 1,4ghz.

WTF.

The display resolution is great, but the rest is bleh.

Disapointed overall, the osx lion was not shown, the mba is just measly. and the the new additions is just pure ipad/iphone copy/paste

Oh, come on now. You know whenever he says that he means Apple is looking for a way to do it better.

I'm all for better, maybe a rotating touch scree and a stylus, combining ipad and air I'd looove that.

But in this case it just seems like apple did net-books "prettier".

Now I've got to look for a 12-core PC tower (or better) and Apple just lost $10,000.

Lion? Lipstick on a pig. The iPadification of Mac OS.

Mackbook Air? Jobs attempt to make notebooks into a toy as useless and thin as he is.

And of course, his fetish with Blu-ray comes complete with no optical drive whatsoever to deliver content to clients. Useless.

Now we pro content creator users can finally leave. All several million of us.

The era is finally over. The mac, as far as creating pro content, is dead. I'll be divesting my entire company's mac inventory as soon as my current rendering project is finished.

Buh-bye.

:apple:

P.S. What did I expect from Willie Wonka? Sanity. Way too much to ask for.

So can I buy some cheap second-hand stuff from you then?

Trollpost? I've never seen anyone on the set of a photo shoot using a Macbook Air. I've never seen anyone run a live show with a MBA. I don't think people are showcasing 4k footage to clients with the MBA either. Are they not selling the Macbook Pro anymore?
 
Condolences to all the idiots who buy a Macbook Air

And another and another and another and another for each time they drop it.

And you WILL drop it. Many more times than once.

:apple:

But he was talking about the Air. The Air is not intended for professionals.

Who is it intended for the house wife looking up recipes?

The MBA has always been geared towards the professional, now all of sudden its not?

If the professional is not the target audience, then who is because, I don't know too many people who want to spend so much money for so little computer.

Again, this is a progression of change. Apple is now an iOS/Appstore company. Professionals can hit the road. Apple is making computers for people who are lazy now. Click one button and here is your super simple app that does just about everything you need. The computer is suppose to be a device in which the only limitations are the hardware. Apple is now limiting its "Devices" by design.

What kind of pro are you? You won't be able to do the work you are doing now a year from now? Give me a freaking break.
