Wonder how the white one is selling?

It would probably be interesting
to see what the percentage of
units sold is for the $999 white
one.

In general, the macbook target
market should be those who are
simply looking for a reliable
notebook at a reasonable price
(as opposed to the Macbook pro
market). The $999 one should
satisfy 95% of that market.

My guess is that the author is
correct about the single block
aluminum enclosure. Probably
about 6 people in the entire
world actually care about it. If it
adds to the cost, it's silly.

One caveat: There are always rumors about what Apple is
doing so the cut in production
might be true or not.
