Two years ago, there was this new computer that came out. It was thin, which was what people expected, and it was wireless, which was what people expected, although it was weirdly shaped. (The bezel around the screen was too thick, for example.) People said that it wasn’t powerful enough and that it was too slow to get any real work done on. To add insult to injury, the best performing model was a bit too expensive for people to stomach, at least those people who were interested in how many features you could squeeze into that price tag. But most of all, they were incredibly underwhelmed. They expected nothing less than the negation of the known laws of thermodynamics.
What’s weird is that although the company that makes them has a record of simply killing off poor performers, they haven’t yet done so. I wonder what’s taking them so long.
hu… it’s because the macbook air is a great computer.
I’m sure the ipad will be better.

hu ? ho yes, I knew you were facetious. The whole sentence ” they haven’t yet done so. I wonder what’s taking them so long.” , I just wanted to drive the point home with all seriousness, to confirm your text.
On the Internet, no one knows you understand the joke :)
