The new air is quite nice, best in its niche imo.
I just think it's funny that when people have these conversations they want to automatically dismiss the trackpad as if it is meaningless even though there really is no comparison. (See post #22) Believe me, I wish there were.
Doesnt Windows "just work" too? I don't recall doing anything special to make it "work"
I think I must be the only person on the planet that hates the clicky touchpad.
Clicky touch surfaces sucked on the BB storm and the suck on laptops as well.

Anti Virus, Anti Spy Ware/ Adware, Replace the Web Browser, download drivers etc etc.
Windows is fine, unless you want something more.
safari is a piece of crap compared to other browsers out there, IE8 isn't much worse and IE9 is actually quite nice.

Point me to the windows laptop with a touch pad as good as the mbp, a backlit keyboard, etc. so I can buy it and do an actual apples to apples (ha?) comparison. Thanks.

Why do you need a backlit keyboard? Its got a great big glowy screen just above it.
I've never had the need to use a touchpad, is that the same as a tampad? Backlit keyboard? Ever heard of a light switch? There are plenty of keyboards that have shinny lights underneath their keys; there are laptops that have the same as well.Point me to the windows laptop with a touch pad as good as the mbp, a backlit keyboard, etc. so I can buy it and do an actual apples to apples (ha?) comparison.

Two different consumer sets. I need a computer with a valid command line interface, excellent reliability and great hardware. But if you need a machine that is cheap, runs any hardware, you don't need a CLI and you want to play games. Then you want a PC.
If you don't need to fuck with it, it means you are doing it wrong. Apple makes its customers feel special by requiring them to buy an external DVD drive so they can install Windows and actually use the computer for something.
You really wrote this? You realize you just turned 27 years of Mac marketing on its head?

I guess people seem to forget that Apple says that you need Anti-Virus on your Macs now. They're getting more popular so they're getting targeted more.
Also I hate OSX. I'm sure I've used it more than most people but I still hate it. Lots of things make me think why the hell they did it that way.
