Except that said macbook is terribly expensive and is something which 99% of us don't need. I have one, but I don't pretend I needed it and I would definitely be more effective with a cheaper dual screen desktop, which I'd have if I weren't a essentially mobile worker. Life is full of trade-offs and your macbook is one of them, get one it if you want, but don't pretend it defines you as super effective or low maintenance, only really our output verses cost will define that.
