MacBooks or macboomers?

So the new macbooks, or should I be PC and say MacBook? No, macbook.

The 13" 2.0ghz core duo comes in two flavors:
black and white with a $200 price diff.
One would think….RAM and hard drive or somethin in there to cause that diff, ya, no.

For $200 you get a black finish and 20gb of extra HD space, maybe three years ago we would have gone "oo, neato", but today you get a resounding "fuck you".

The white model comes loaded with a 60GB hard drive while the black is 80GB, you can upgrade the white model to 80gb for $50. Also for $200 you get an upgrade from 1.83 to 2.0ghz, while at first glance this is complete bullshit except for the fact that if you look closely you get an upgrade to a DVD+/-RW. Ok, I can kinda see it. Still though, I've never had the need to burn a dvd. I might be an early adopter at heart, but I'm so not a worthy power user. I'm just a ram power user.

Evil mcevilness I say.

It's smart of apple because they could see that people have been begging for other colors, esp black, for their updated ibooks. Everyone knew something was going to change, esp with the color choices of the iPods (whatever happened to Bono's AIDS red ipod?). They saw the market of people willing to pay a premium for that extra. Smart as hell, but evil at the same time. $50 maybe I'd be willing for just a diff paint job, but $200? Fuck you.

Ok, well, I have to give them that they are coming with the airport/bluetooth card built in, that's a complete plus.
