meh, i'm just starting to fool around with music editing and my 250 GB laptop is out of storage. Also, it's a three year old laptop and that's what it came with. They could have kept the stainless steel and given me a bigger drive. Who exactly is the intended user for this ultra-expensive, non-portable, box if it's too lame for hobbyists? This is just apple sticking a vacuum into their customers pockets, applying the same over-pricing policy that is now standard on their phones.
