“Is it morally wrong to spend $1,299 on a new MacBook from Apple Inc. when you can buy a decent notebook computer for half that price or even a recent white-plastic-encased MacBook for $999? The way some initial reviewers have been talking – including two District-based scribes – it’s almost classist in some way to spend the extra bucks,” Mark Kellner reports for The Washington Times.
“In the words of talk-radio host G. Gordon Liddy, whom I met at a reception given by The Washington Times many years ago, that’s a bunch of ‘Bravo Sierra.’ The new MacBook – all of it – is worth the expense, in my view. From the sleek case to the high-powered computing plant behind the brushed aluminum, this is a computer with a lot going for it,” Kellner reports.
“If money is an issue, go for the classic MacBook, still available. It’s a great value and a good performer. If, on the other hand, you can or care to splurge a little bit, the new MacBook is worth every penny,” Kellner reports.
