[OT] Mac App Store

[Chipp Walters]

Bill,

That article is at mac observer-- so I'm thinking it could be a bit biased?
But, you are correct on a couple points. Netbooks are typically up to 1/8
the cost of the new MacBooks, and they have more USB and other external
ports.

Even so, my original point was you really can't believe anything Stevie
says. For instance, he has previously confirmed there would not be a Mac
AppStore-- now there is one.
