I think this article is about what you don't need. Apple has a long tradition of omitting "features", which is applauded in hindsight but cause quite a stir at the release.
(Examples: floppy and optical disc drives, modems, firewire and ethernet ports, expansion slots, physical buttons, ...)

- minalecs 16y agohmmm.. I interpreted it differently especially when he says "This is exactly the type of system I want". Netbooks have been offering computers without optical drives I think since the beginning, so no innovation there. My comment is based on the fact that, the Ipad was deemed the netbook killer and this system that he is talking about is basically a netbook running Mac OS. So when the Ipad came out they convinced people, they needed a gadget that sits between your desktop/main laptop, and mobile device.. and this would kil the netbook. Now MG is stating that the Ipad really is good for just certain things, and now he needs another gadget for when not using his Ipad or Laptop. I think Apple's message works well on their loyal fans, and that should be congratulated.
