Im telling you, the MBA is not a netbook. I had a netbook. The MBA is what a laptop should be. It runs everything great except for power programs and windows emulation (not a problem for most people)

the second to last paragraph makes no sense...

@MightyJoe36: you could also do good old police work. Nobody wakes up one morning and decides to hijack a plane.

@Dodge2002: ...or the kid could get some real world experience instead of just being pacified every single time its bored.

@thnikkamax: Maybe I didnt make my point well...reflecting on probability after the event is not a valid argument.

@Unseelie23: I should have clarified; if you don't have an external drive, its a PITA to install.

@Kaiser-Machead v.2.2: I'd add that I had netbook before a macbook air and its no way the same. Full size keyboard, bigger screen, and it runs way better. My netbook was like using a computer from 1995 (it was an Acer Aspire).

I dont know why everyone bags on the Air. I have one.

@thinkinghuman: You have a misunderstanding of evolution. Complex things like "five legs" do not just pop up. Those beings die, if even born. Evolution is about selection. It happens slowly, or early. Not all mutations "are allowed" or "occur", especially in what we have now: complex animals with multiple systems.…

@thnikkamax: The odds don't matter because it happened. Improbable =/= impossible.

@Zinger314: It cant form complex shapes; mobius strips and messages have cavities, moving parts. It doesn't work that way, but it can form simple shapes.

@Pope John Peeps II: Agree. Not to mention the tin man version looks way cooler than the iron man version.

Im sorry...but I immediately thought of this guy....

@anexanhume: The file...its missing!

@Zanzan42: I would love harryhausen skeletons ad infinitum. Avatar was great in the theater but the visuals are already boring to me. I could watch Harryhausen effects on constant loop.

I was going to make a comment about the "Banksy" all over it being a clue since it had little to do with the main theme of the opening...but then I watched the whole thing and damn, that was a great opening. Banksy just got my respect.

@rathat: Its too damn hot for a penguin to just be walkin' around there. I gotta send him to the south pole!

its like smelling an earth fart

@jiggpig: Oh I didnt know you meant like specific apps, I thought you meant things you generally general functions. Half of those are like really, really specific. You probably would be better off with an Android phone I guess.

@BeefSupreme: yeah....I know...(sigh).
