Boom Boom Boom. Nice counter. One to the body, one to the face. Stick and move, stick and move. Pop-ups are how I find all the hot stock tips and travel deals. I thought those were a bonus not a boobie trap. ¿ You're not into them ? WTF ???

Not a bad point Joe-Joe.

The future of the web is not a bunch of white boys on macs.

Apple is lost in this fascination, and so are the white boys that really feel they are the only ones creating the web.

To counter your point on price: Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it. The personal computer is becoming the most important piece of equipment in a person\'s life, leaving the OralB in it\'s dust.

At some point you do need to pay for quality. It is hard to appropriately value such an important piece of equipment merely on a price tag.

Take for instance a pop-up. How many have you closed in your life? How much time have you wasted re-installing, rebooting, or runnning virus scanning equipment on Windows.

How much is that time worth? There is a price tag there as well.

Not so much whether Macbooks are sorry. But take a close look at the demographic that can afford them. Homo-genious.
