    The main problem, as one guy points out by saying he would not pay $2,000 for that laptop, is that a premium is being paid for less materials. True the technology inside to make it that small is likely very impressive, but computer manufacturers need to evolve away from putting a high price on compact size. If they can make these netbooks for $400 and they're smaller in width and overall size, they should be able to apply the same construction to a larger laptop and reduce the overall height, with a lower price.

    • A premium is being paid for a better product. A Ford will never match a BMW or Audi. You get what you pay for.itsmitch
