According to David Passell there's a need for an Apple that isn't so expensive. He suggests we read this. "I think the Chromebook is going to give Apple a bit more competition than first assumed. Consumers, schools, and businesses are buying Chromebooks instead of more expensive devices. This could put new pressure on Apple to create a cheap device.
With his P.S. David reminds us he still has a 2008 Mini running Snow Leopard, and "I probably don't know what (hassles?) I am missing." He signs off by calling himself the "browsing triceratops."
