Eh. This isn't necessarily a good thing - it's only showing, once again, how
much Apple underestimates the needs of its customers. You shouldn't *have* to
replace your hard disk - why not get enough space in the first place?

Macs have always been crippled by their RAM and hard disk space - and like
PCs or not, they've always been built to the hilt with such things when you
spend the same amount of money as on a Mac. And Macs need that space more
than PC users.

Even the Newton - I have an un-upgraded eMate, and I keep reading about this
nifty stuff that I can't play with, since it'll run slow as a glacier without
the eMate memory upgrade - which, evidently, is fairly impossible to find.
And would the 2100 have come out if Apple hadn't REALLY bungled it with the
low memory on the 2000?

Then again, this whole iPod fracas allows Apple to sell an iPodling - a
clip-on expansion hard disk.

I shouldn't have woken up so early today. Eh.
