This is why I'm getting an iPad.

What is it with laptop manufacturers anyway? I mean, what are they thinking? Why build a laptop with the latest greatest processor, give it 8 MB of RAM, and then saddle it with a crappy video card? Or they give it a great video card but no HDMI output and a bargain basement sound card? Or maybe it has lots of RAM, but it's the old stuff—DDR2 instead of DDR3? (Maybe they think guys will be distracted by the Double D designation.)

I fully expect that if I ever find a laptop with a great processor, lots of RAM, a high-end video and audio card, solid-state hard drive, and a motherboard that can handle all that, it'll probably have a hand-crank on the side to power it up.

And seriously, I won't mind if it actual weighs a couple of pounds either. Hey, I work out.
