Low End Mac misses the mark again?
Low End Mac has a good article on the new MacBook Air. Entitled “The MacBook Air Misses the Mark“, the article explains why the MacBook Air has disappointed a lot of 12″ Powerbook users who are (still) looking for a replacement.
The article is all fine and dandy until it goes on to say: “If, like me, you are tired of waiting for Apple to replace your 12″ wonder, then it would appear the 15″ MacBook Pro is the only option.”
Which freaks me out completely.
I upgraded from a 12″ 1.5GHz Powerbook. But guess what. I upgraded to a MacBook. No “Pro”.
If you are using a 12″ Powerbook, your are interested in size and weight.
So why on earth would you go for a 15″ behemoth?
12″ Powerbook users: wake up and smell the roses. So what if Steve Jobs didn’t come through this time?
There’s always the MacBook and with a 1280×800 screen (compared to 1024×768 in the Powerbook), it is definitely an UPGRADE!
