Meet My $2598 2011 MacBook Air . . .

Then why not simply call them bankers?

For the same reason someone would post about a $2500 MBA.

There's really no explanation for choosing the words "Zionist bankers" other than anti-semitism. Most bigoted individuals will deny their bigotry because they know it's socially unacceptable. Accusations of political correctness also help to distract.

Regarding the original point of this thread, a quote from S#$% My Dad Says comes to mind:
"Son, no one gives a s#$% about all the things your cell phone does. You didn't invent it, you just bought it. Anybody can do that."

Give me $3000 and I'll start a thread about my new 1TB SSD MBA. The chicks will flock.

 

[gentlefury]

fyi, you DO NOT need a billion dollars worth of storage to run windows AND OSX on the Air. many people can get by doing this on 128GB, and certainly the 256GB option ($300) is plenty.

the size of your SSD should not affect performance.

I have a 256GB SSD on my Mac Pro and have windows and lion on it.

 

[finduz]

Wow, that's quite expensive. No way I'll afford something like that here in Norway.
Paid $2350 for my 13" 256GB :-/

I hope you're not using Win7 as main OS and bought the SSD for the performance. Because it's quite a bit slower in Windows than OS X because of the lacking AHCI mode...

 

[VMMan]

Once you go SSD, there's no looking back. I'm looking forward to the days in which SSD will become ubiquitous (and relatively cheaper).

Well OK, being the thread starter here, I just wanted to make a comment regarding the excessive price flamers.

I'm 57 years and have worked hard my entire life as a pilot and scientist. I have no mortgage, no car payment, no credit card debt and have never paid any interest as I belive in pay-as you-go. Look boys and girls, say I dropped $1300 on an SSD for my MBA because that's what I wanted to do. Most "in the matrix" consumers pay more than that in interest to the zionist bankers and corporate scammers every month.

Who's dumb here?

Hey Vortron,
Can you post speed tests of your new OWC drive? I would like to compare to the standard SSD in the macbook air.

 

[samroberto]

I'm sifting through your list trying to find something they do well

+ 1. Someone on the other side of the fence could say, Hey look at Government's oh so gracious and benevolent blessing of social security... From my side of the fence, "Hey look it's bankrupt. No thank you Government Control".

Op

OP, C-springs?

I'm not sure why you couldn't just get a GPS
Nevertheless, congrats and that looks like a nice setup and boy do I wish my 11" had a 480GB SSD. If you have the money then why the hell not

mubert provides a typical jackass, un-educated response. Noam Chomsky, Norman Finkelstein, Irfan Khawaja, and Tariq Ali have all suggested that the characterization of anti-Zionism as anti-Semitic is inaccurate and is mostly a political ploy to stifle legitimate criticism regarding extreme corruption and the missing 17 trillion dollars by the Federal Reserve.

I have a regular GPS but since I do a lot of traveling, you cannot get that kind of graphics and data capability with a typical GPS. I run Garmin Mobile PC, Microsoft MapPoint 2011 (business mapping), Delorme Street Atlas USA 2011 which includes the entire USA telephone + address database, Topo USA, and iGuidance. Plus Garmin interfaces directly with Microsoft Outlook. Try doing all that with a regular GPS.

Peddle this crap on a forum dedicated to political paranoia.

 

[Vortron]

- Anyone who thinks Jesus was a socialist doesn't know the former or understand the latter.

Peddle this crap on some forum dealing with religious fiction.

 

[kainjow]

This thread has veered off course into the political spectrum and is getting ugly.

If you want to discuss the GPS software and such, you can start a new thread.
