How portable can you get?

Posted under Geek Chic, Geeky Me, Gadgets

I am disappointed with the new Macbook Air… Which is a good thing actually because I don’t have to sell kidneys (mine and my bf’s), legs and arms just to satisfy my WANT for the gadget. On the other hand, I must be really busy and I didn’t get to research on this NEW toy. I think it’s ultra portable - better for those lazy days when I just want my laptop with me (not that my MB is heavy) it’s just that this ASUS EEE PC is lighter.

Macbook Air sacrificed too many important features, which  are, at least for me, cannot be compromised. If I would be a first time laptop user and kinda ignorant to the features of the now MB and MBP, then I might grab one in a heartbeat (assuming, that I have money, duh) but for me who owns a great, working MacBook and then would shift to MBA, is not a reasonable move. It’s only lighter by a few pounds, that’s all.

Besides, for the price of MBA - it’s waaay to expensive for such machine. I’d take the ASUS EEE PC, for as low as 16,999. So what if it runs windows?
