In a move that shouldn't surprise anyone, Microsoft has finally started to run an ad that's a direct attack against Apple. Previous marketing campaigns by Microsoft have always more or less ignored Apple, but the company's latest commercial is a direct attack on Apple in a place where it should hurt Apple the most: price.

I agree with your sentiments but the OP's point is still valid. I've upgraded the hard disk in my MBP and although it's far from what I'd call difficult it is definitely not as simple as it should be either.
It's an easier task for the MB than it is for the MBP which I find a little odd considering MBP users are more likely to require such upgrades.

And upgrading hard disks on other laptops is easier? the only laptops I've come across where it is easy are those laptops which are desktop replacements. Laptops that are designed to be laptops are compact because they don't allow the same degree of modification as a desktop replacement.
With that being said, upgrading the harddisk on a MacBook isn't difficult, remove the battery, unscrew a couple of screws and on your left hand side you'll see the hard disk and infront of you there is the memory upgrade slots.
