Netbooks, these substandard, cumbersome, underpowered err- I mean these small, trendy, inexpensive and efficient laptops took off and are becoming the next major thing, or whatever. Apparently, not all people need a lot of Hz, and are pretty satisfied with anything that is decent enough for them to get on the Interwebs, watch movies and listen to music. Some of them netbooks are well below 1 GHz, have no dedicated GPU, some of them has well below 80 GB of storage, and very small and cumbersome displays; yet this didn't put off the people who buy them.
I personally have no interest in revisiting the late 90s, that's why I've never considered nor will I ever consider one, but their success got me thinking, maybe Apple should bring something below $1099, it'll generate a lot of interest for Apple and help it grow a bit more, I'm not suggesting EeePC specs or EeePC prices, but something around $949 should do the job, maybe even start at as low as $899, be very well equipped and still a bit exclusive as all Macs should be.
