Weird that people complain about a product line that was discontinued and replaced with a superficially similar one lacking most of the selling points of the previous model? If Windows wasn't still an inconsistent and dysfunctional POS, and if Linux desktops hadn't modeled themselves after Microsoft's shitty choices, maybe there would be a viable alternative.

Why is Apple the only vendor who seems to understand how a desktop should work in the 21st century?
