So my other half is in the market for a new laptop. She asked me what she said get. I said “a Mac Book Pro”. She said “A Mac? They’re like, rubbish!” (well something like that anyway). I said “no they’re not”. Anyway she was thinking about buying a Vaio, until someone came into her office the other day and said they’d “wished they’d bought a Mac Book Pro instead cos the Vaio kept crashing”, which made her re-think. So as she obviously doesn’t believe a bloody word I say, I wondered if you’d help me gang up on her and leave a comment her explaining why a Mac Book Pro is better than a Vaio. Mean I know, but if she wont believe me…

So Apple have done what they have done well…. hype…. everyone has posted a fucking picture of it or wrote about it like a daft bugger (me included).
But more thoughts….
1) Doesn’t it look like a PSP with the buttons cut off?
2) Oooooh isn’t it shiny… like a PSP? But ooooh…. wont it arf get scratched after a month in your pocket and all that prodding?
3) As JG says where’s the 3G and 5mp camera with a decent lens?
4) Actually it’s just like a Treo… or iPaq…. with a grooooooooovier interface
5) No really it is just a smart phone.
6) Uh…. 4 or 8 gig…. fuck’s sake. Is that the best you can do?
7) So if you’re not going to whack a 60gb hd in it, where’s the expansion slot?
8) Actually it appears to be a bit of a shiny all in one jack off all master of none device…. uh like an iPaq of Treo… just shinier.
9) Oh… can I run a Blackberry or exchange client on it?
10) OOOh but isn’t it shiny, can I have one?
So in summary without actually having seen the bugger…. very very very nice looking ui with some nice clever haptic stuff, but actually looks just like a smart phone…. just shinier.
So my first questions are: Will Apple sell it SIM free i.e. unlocked, or will it be sold tied to a network, or will it be sold via the networks? How the hell does ‘ear recognition’ work? Is it certified to run Doom?
If all buildings that served a particular purpose were shaped like the things they contained or represented? It would make things really easy to find and towns easy to navigate, while having the added bonus of making the urban landscape look really silly.

There are two ex clients of mine on the current homepage, both a bit porno, but given the masculinity of their trade, spot on.
