I don't really love Zynga, but I can't see what is wrong or unethical in this. Its not nice, but they don't owe it to you to be nice or 'not evil'.

There is no option to upgrade to high-res(higher-res) screen on the 13 inch. I think I am pretty sure on that. Just the plain 1280x800.

One, being a bit pedantic but exchange rate has nothing to do with the income gap. If I measure distances in feet and you in metres, would you say that distances in my country are 'smaller'? The term that you should be looking at is per-cap

Not to sound insensitive but 134 flights and 2 accidents is a good enough record. I for one would have volunteered to go, if I was presented with these odds. Robots can't do everything.
