who can afford this crap. Looks great.. but I am so done with apple. They can claim being the fastest at whatever, but if you can't sell it to a modest consumer market, who cares. SGI machines back in the day were amazing, no one could afford them... Just sad. If it was 3-4g, I could maybe justify that.
