        For all you fans of Mac as well as CNC of aluminum objects check
        this out.

    Where is the beef? HOW fast is it? WHAT does it weigh? HOW long does
    the battery last? Does it have solid state storage memory? Mac! The
    computer for latte sipping naive computer buyers :)

It has little tiny holes.

Look to the right of the thumbscoop. You see nothing. Until you close
the display and your MacBook goes to sleep. Then an LED glow appears
from inside the enclosure. How? During the CNC process, a machine first
thins out the aluminum. Then a laser drill creates small perforations
for the LED light to shine through. These holes are so tiny that the
aluminum appears seamless when the light is off.

Cool! Hey thats worth paying the extra $1000 for it alone :)

   I don't sip lattes but I am going to buy one as I wouldn't buy any
Microshit based computer.

Take a look at the EeePC. It is a $1000 dollars cheaper and comes with way more software. All free. It also has more I/O. Solid state 40 gig drive and six hour battery life.  Only 3 pounds. Fast on and off. It runs Linux which is just about the same OS as the Mac runs. Try it. You will love it as much as I do.

 No thanks I am not a computer geek and don't want to spend the time
learning the Linux and 40 gigs just don't cut it as I have over 80
gigs of music alone and the Mac has a 320 gig drive.
