I don't argue with anything you say, Laurent. I agree that it will
likely be a cold day in Cupertino before a Comet-killer comes out.
No question but that the Ti-G4 is thin-very thin at that. But the
width and depth is an issue for me, believe it or not. As is the
weight. I do notice the difference, since my computer is nearly
always on my shoulder as I go from client to client. A pound over
the course of a day, or even .9 pounds, get noticeable by the end of
the day. Since the width and depth are less on my comet, I am also
able to shove more things in my briefcase to make up for that pound
lost. The only thing the thinness of the Ti-G4 gets me is more paper
in my briefcase.
If cost were no object, I would love to have the Ti-G4. I could
watch movies on it, if nothing else! But I have invested a great
deal of time, money and love into my comet, and I'm going to wait a
bit before I make the jump to the Ti-G4. I have little doubt I will,
but not right now.
