|  Congrats to Steve for this....has been a long-time coming. I'd even have expected them to best out gateway.
One thing that draws people to macs is their ease of use and now oft-copied curves. To be able to actually go and TOUCH a new titanium, and perhaps compare that to the Sony Vaio Magnesium-alloy, you'll appreciate the difference.
As a long time mac advocate at home, and PC user at work for the last 10 years, it's been quite horrific to live in a 2nd tier city (Lansing, MI) and not be able to even SEE an ibook, or a titanium, until they had been out forever. I pity the mac dealers who never got the corporate support they were promised - seems to me there are hundreds of them who are being swallowed as MACS are placed next to pc's at compusa with only a smattering of the available software and peripherals stocked.
Even MAC haters will be drawn into the stores. Who knows if anyone will buy any.
