    Oh Mark... You really, really hate the Mac Pro.

    I kinda want to just give you a hug and tell you it's going to be O.K.

    It's amazing how much coverage the Apple tablet gets on Giz considering how it's a product bordering on fictitious.

    @Mark Wilson: I'll take some of that action. Read what he said, "Bordering on ficticious". This is a product that is not confirmed to exist by anyone who can be said to know for sure. A million rumours do not make a product real.

    @Mark Wilson:

    I'm sorry Mark but corporate whisperings and unofficial concept images make for a pretty insubstantial product. While it's incredibly likely that this is going to happen it's still a way off.

    I mean you only have to look through the Apple tablet articles on Gizmodo to see that it's nothing more than a swirling cloud of rumour and anticipation. The most we have from Apple about it is a very vague patent.

    I mean to quote another article on Giz:
    "We still don't know what the fabled Apple Tablet actually looks like, or if it even exists, really"

    It's probably not fictitious but it is damn well toeing that line. It's just silly how many articles are posted if someone even breathes the words "Apple Tablet". The hype is just getting ridiculous.

    @Kaiser-Machead: i disagree...MBPs rely so much on passive heat dissipation and the air gaps below the chiclets.. Any increase in surface area is a plus and i guess that product is for those who otherwise would have it closed while docked. That's bad juju, imo.

    I bought my MBP in the summer, and I don't regret it at all. It's a fantastic machine with superb battery life. If you don't currently have a proper computer to hold you over for the next few months, just get it now. You won't regret it. Don't fall for the same nonsense the bleeding edge people do.

    @Kaiser-Machead: If your iffy about the price of the machines you can get great deals in the refurbished lines. Just go to the store link and you will find the refurbs in the lower left. My first laptop was a Powerbook g4 that I bought in 2004 and I got almost 6 years out of it (just got a new MBP about a month ago)

    I purchased a set of H/K soundsticks, and I'm sure they sound way way better than this setup for not much more (I paid just $20 more than this). Apple's site lists them for $169, but they can be had new for a great deal cheaper if you shop around.

    When it detects 11 points, does it say "You killed my father! Prepare to die!"?

    This in case you forget how many fingers you have. You can just touch your trackpad with all of them and your Mac will tell you.

    Side note, is it a Spinal Tap thing that it goes up to 11? #macbookmultitouchapp
