Sure, you can organize it by product line if you want. Or they could just tack another (low weight) item onto the low end of the PowerBook or iBook line.


I don't particularly care how it's marketed -- call it the TiniBook if you want. I've learned from two years of toting my Thinkpad around that I don't need to be carrying around the mass of an optical drive.

    I agree. I have been using a Compaq T100 for the past two years with no desire or need for a cd player. In fact, the only time I have ever used the one that I have, was when I installed Debian.

    Personally I think it would be great if Apple did this. Why, because it seems like they are the only company that does not charge extra when they make things smaller.
