So how come when I don't own Apple stock, he announces the iPhone, but when I do own Apple stock, he announces a laptop that's twice as expensive but slower and has no CD-ROM drive, and you can't buy your own battery for it, even if it is really thin.

But if Steve Jobs says that people will pay a $700 premium for a super-thin laptop, maybe they will.

At my last job, I remember the CEO being in a panic because he had gone to a conference and HE HADN'T HAD THE THINNEST LAPTOP IN THE ROOM.

So I think there's definitely a market for these among rich douchebags, and they might catch on with other people too -- there's definitely some neat things about them.

I find the wireless backup station kind of entrancing, but I really shouldn't buy anything right now.
