iMeh – My iPad story
Ok I would protest at being called a Apple fanboi, but all the evidence does say otherwise. I do own a Macbook, iPhone (3rd one) and until recently a iPad. I purchase my iPad before it was released in the UK as I was in vegas for business (NAB), it was too shiney to resist, plus @davidpeto was chomping at the bit to get one too.
The screen is impressive, it's quick and beautifully built. But it's tiring to hold as you need to grip it hard as its so slippery, the keyboard is too spaced out to type quickly and the lack of iOS 4 is annoying. You can't store files independently of apps, and no printing. I thought it was going to be like my iPhone but better, but instead it's like a crap laptop, inherited the worst of both platforms.
The straw that broke the back was the SHITE wifi reception, meaning that I could only use it in the lounge really. Why not just use a real computer then? Suffice to say it's gone pretty much unused, so has been moved on. I'm sure the new owner will be less picky and enjoy it. 
Bring back the Apple Cube?
For me there is a hole in the current Mac lineup. The 27" iMac is great, but I dont want or need a new screen and even if I did I'd buy an Eizo. I could bleet on for ages but instead i'll boil it down to my fanboi wishlist.
- 2 PCI slots (one can have GFX card)
- 2 3.5" HDD slots
- SSD space
- 4+ RAM slots
- i7 Quad Core chip
- FW800/1600
- Plenty of USB2
- DVI & display port
Or do us a i7 powered entry level Mac Pro for i7 iMac money.
