Buffistechnology 2: You Made Her So She Growls?  

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ooh. Pretty.

Let's see - I have just enough time to stop by at the Apple store in downtown Chicago before I catch my train to the F2F....

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Want.

In black, natch.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Why is the black one more expensive? In what world does that make sense?

I noticed that the basic HD was 80g versus 60g.

...just to establish to myself that it's way too soon to really think about replacing my not-quite-2yo iBook. Even if I've worn off the letter on the N key.

Hey. New board.

Yeah, the $200 premium is... odd.

'Sokay, the white is prettier anyhoo, if its like the iPods. IMHO, of course.

Now planning Saturday trip to see new Apple store AND new Macbooks! Even though I won't be getting one!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It comes pre-set to evil.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

It's probably to deal with the demand to keep the black ones from selling out much faster. (That, and money.) Didn't that happen with the nano?

The black one has an 80gig hard drive, the white only a 60gig. But still! I want a sexy black one, but I have no desire to spend $1500.

Of course, at this point, given how my current powerbook is evil, and only two years old, I'm not sure if I WILL get another Apple. Sigh.

Right, but why? I mean, why not just make color an option like everything else?
