      17" laptop? Jobs has lost his ****ing mind.

      No news here...

      The LCD display eats up about twice as much battery power as the CPU and GPU combined, by the way.

      Go Apple!

          True artistry? The thing is as utilitarian and unartistic as you can get!

          It's a silver *BOX*!

          Are you so brainwashed by Apple to think everything they **** out is art?

            Ah, but who cares as long as it still has a good battery length? Apple has always had very long-lasting laptops, and I haven't heard that the 17" is dramatically shorter.
            Plus, you obviously have no concept of 'modern' design. Utilitarian can be artistic. It is stylish in it's simplicity. it has smooth, subtle lines, which lead to an overall elegant looking machine.

                no - that's reminiscent of a toddler playing with ms paint. You used ms paint, didn't you!!!

                  While you people start a new war about Mac, my chunky box just arrived a few minutes ago. Yay! 15,2 kg, but the box is still very large. Now I just have to get it opened.

                  As for that Mac, I agree that the 17" display is quite crazy. How on Earth is the battery supposed to be used when travelling? Or do they expect that you have an extra battery with you?

                  /me goes off to open the box and start fiddling with the new toy.

                    You obviously don't get the ultra-pseudo-manifesto style reminiscent of the early 1930s that I was going for.

                    Typical bigotted Mac users, don't know anything about art.

                      The only thing promising about your little artwork there was the pixelazation of the exclamation point. And actually, I do know much about art. Enough to know that you are talking through your ass.

                          That's not an exclamation point! It is a cross with a bowl of cabbage below it! You fool!

                          Talking through the ass is art, as well.

                            Hmm... looks like all the ordered stuff was included. However the Extigy and Iomega boxes were larger than I expected.

                                You give me too much credit.

                                I do find it funny in your attempt to assert your superiority you overlooked the glaring signs that I was f*cking with you from the start, though.
