    Whether we agree or not does not change Apple's decision. Offering an ultra-thin computer has its price and may or may not like it, but the positions taken by apple in the past and today have been firmly established. It can crash, but we have a capacity to adapt to circumstances.
    The same has happened with the iPad, to which if you wanted to connect an external drive and dump data you have to go through the box and buy the adapter. That, I think is what can bother the most of all this ... the price of the adapters.
