Ben Brooks on the difference between the hardware experiences of the iMac and the MacBook Air compared to the Mac Pro:
As I think about everything that Apple stands for with its design and goals, I can’t help but suspect that the MacBook Air is the epitome of the Mac experience as Apple sees it. Small, quick, sleek, low-price, sealed.
The MacBook Air and the Mac Pro are polar opposites: one a marvel of engineering — the other a marvel of brute strength.
