Plus it runs Windows in Fusion just fine. If you expect something super thin and useful for under $1K, think again. MacBook Air at $1,800US is a very fair price.

The chip in this machine is actually the slowest one available, a single core 1.2Ghz CPU. I believe the ULV chips go up to dual-core 1.4Ghz, which would probably provide a far better experience when multi-tasking than a ANY single core.

And they also limit the proccessor speed and ram. Why? To justify using xp instead of the newer more intensive vista. Correct me if I'm wrong.
