> I don't know if I can accept the prognostication of someone who thinks that in 2003 "any self-respecting developer was carrying a MacBook, preferably the one the size of a small aircraft carrier" I know I can't, simply because the Macbook did not exist in 2003. The Macbook was only introduced in 2006. In 2003, it was called iBook. And, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't remember "developers" being the lion share of those buying iBooks back in 2003-05.
