Macbook Air

The minimum price for a Macbook Air is £1199. For this, you get a slow processor, 2 gig of RAM with no option to upgrade ever, mono speakers - although I guess it doesn't need decent speakers, since there is no DVD drive to watch movies on anyway, tiny (and slow) hard drive (just in case you thought you could download movies to watch instead), no Ethernet port, and a single USB port just to fuck you over in case you thought you could plug in a USB ethernet dongle and external USB hard drives and DVD drives to work around the above inadequacies.


The best part of all is that if you pay £2000, you can get the higher spec model, which has a slightly faster processor and even less storage.
