Macbook (hot) air

The other day I was planning on buying a new laptop. Nothing fancy.. Something for writing, music organization, graphic design and maybe some cool internet abilities.
I was looking at MacBooks avoiding getting overconfident in my trendiness, as rumors began to reach my ears about "The Keynote" referring to Steve Jobs' special announcement of his latest products for Apple. It was sounding almost too Willy Wonka to handle as I toyed around with the iPhone like it was an everlasting gobstopper and the ipod touch like a fizzy lifting drink. I had to know what was coming out the next day. After an hour of trying to crack the employees (no water-boarding) I went to circuit city to see what they might have that apple would need to out-do.

I found what I considered the best notebook interface I'd ever seen! A swivel screen, tablet laptop with built in mp3, touchscreen, perf-mouse board, high speed, thumb print security light, small and.... It was running... Windows Vista. True I could have installed linux on it but none of the functions would work.
I began to daydream about the potential of running music software like Ableton live or Riesen on a touchscreen could revolutionize the art of live music.

Not to mention, make DJs the first to live in Star Trek.

So I had been counting some chickens...
What did we get? Macbook Potato Chip!
I am sure there are uses for a computer that ninjas can kill you with, but what does this mean for the world of electronica? well, nothing really, except that everyone will buy one of these and by the time they forget its in the chair and sit on it...
Hopefully my dream computer will be there to replace it after weeks of anticipation for Steves secret keynote with all the little oompa loompas.
