The envelope had been lying there on the minimalist desk all throughout Jobs' keynote. The rumours had been clear: Apple is going to launch a subnotebook, a sort of MacBook Mini. Despite the rumours, the collective gasp of amazement was clearly audible when Jobs pulled the MacBook Air out of the envelope. I have to admit, even I was all wowed. Consequently, you can imagine I was delighted when Apple NL agreed to loan me a review unit as soon as they had the MacBook Air in stock. Read on for the review.

Doesn't matter. All they will see is that the ends of the cable have plugs that look like they should fit into those sockets on their computers. That's the way end users think. I've spent hours trying to track down strange problems at client sites... only to discover in the end that the customer had added a "hub" to their network. A "hub" which which was actually a router... with DHCP server fully functional and enabled. End users go by what things look like and whether the plug fits.
It would be more interesting, I think, to give them a straight through cable and watch them struggle. Smile! You're on Candid Camera! :-)
