And you can argue it until you're blue in the face. That size difference matters to people and it will sell because of it. And it'll have very little to do with the rest of it's specs. People who are quite computer savvy will still buy it simply for it's size, no matter how much it pisses you off.

Pisses me off? Why would I care if someone is dumb enough to piss their money away on an inferior computer? I'm more aggravated that people act like this is some kind of innovation. It's a step backwards if anything.
Let's call this thing what it is at least, a slow, gimped laptop with 1 usb port, no ethernet connector, old processor technology, no internal dvd drive and a battery that you can not replace. It's a computer aimed at people whose primary concern is how cool they look sitting at Starbucks. I think Apple will sell the shit out of these things. There are LOTS of people out there that have more money than sense.
