The sweet spot for notebooks is actually moving toward more desktop replacement models, used mostly at a desk but still portable enough to move around.

Your mind steals on vista… Because of the lack of does security patches is why MacBook’s are getting all this Trojan attacks (flashback and its variants) plus the undocumented patches and the secret vulnerabilities that apple hide from their customers and take months to patch, exposing users for a long time.

Because they buy the sh&$est windows powered machine they possibly could find, complain left and right how horrible it is and then drop thousands for a mac.  That’s why.

funny, I know a significant amount of mac owners/users switching back to the windows world. About 25% of the mac users I know as of right now.  But that’s because Apple’s more interested in making small flashy products to impress people than to get work done.

not just call it notebook instead of confusing the customers with another
category?
