Why speculate on any hypothesis, which needs to be tested to be worth anything? (aka science) What's intelligent life, what is life? All big questions.

The lowest end macbook, white, is under a grand - $999 and has a freakin FW port!
(I cannot believe how many comments this has already recieved, wow!)
Also, the FW 400 to 800 converter is $8.32 on Google checkout. Isn't this a bit overdone?
Why would a 2 year old lowest end macbook owner not want a Macbook Pro for Audio anyway? Buy the $8 FW 400-800 adapter if you still need the cheapest laptop.
BUT All the Audio/MIDI engineers at Apple have added time stamping, to their 32 bit float (up to 10,000 Khz) Audio support. I have no idea what your setup is, hardware/ software - but plug ins & slowers CPU issues would be resolved with a faster Macbook, obviously a Pro version if the low end isn't enough.
Core Audio & MIDI Apple engineers disagree with you. USB initially was not time based, hence the issue for audio. However; Time Stamping the audio - has made it a simple and less expensive alternative.
Also SPIDF 24 bit/96 KHz Audio input is built in to all portable Mac's since G4.
Still the $8.32 FW400 to 800 adapter (google it) will allow all those devices to work into the future.
No Pro earning a living or even serious hobbyist will even consider a cheap macbook almost always the 8 core tower. Often with a 25,000 Pro Tolls system.
Apple adopted FW400 before it was standard. We had to convert SONY 4pin to 6 pin Apple FW with power. It was inconvenient and criticized at the time - we wanted SCSI on every new Mac. ( Barbaric!)
USB is fine, bootable, and reasonably fast. google the $8 FW 400 to 800 adapter if you need to connect FW 400 devices.
The whole point in a UNIBODY design was to lower cost, price, and number of parts to make stronger, lighter, cheaper, thinner, better Macs. Steve is a design minimalist ( see one button mouse controversy) Now Steve eliminated even the ONE button.
By this line of reason, you'd also have a floppy, SCSI, serial, card readers, PS2, and have another giant, ugly, PC which is heavier, messy, thick, more expensive, and relies on past technology instead of looking ahead.
How do you think Apple can afford a glass multitouch trackpad with gestures, at the same pricepoint? Yes, this saves Apple money, and customers, and allows Apple an edge against EVERY PC company.
Technology is always outdating old technologies. True Windows still has DOS - but Apple is all about the consumer not corporate cheapos with zero profit margins.
Less ports also looks sexy, is less overwhelming & confusing for your parents who spend hours looking at all those ports trying to find the right one.
This is nothing new, and there is a whole dog & pony show video explaining unibody as a logical choice for the rapidly growing notebook market.
Not really, I suppose it is a charged subject. If you have kids, it's really scary... Well child molesters or porn traders still have a LOT more rights than terror suspects.... Please vote Nov 4th!
If so, I'm going to need tor or something! All day I've been looking for a cat to adopt.... am I sick? The security business preys on fear, and a false illusion of safety.... ridiculous...
Google can't figure out how to organize photos, asking us to help TAG them ( especially searching for kitty porn!) We can hack any software, website, no security can stop committed people... so once again we'll inconvenience EVERYONE except the people who DO trade kitty porn.
Why is it we require so much more activity to relate our query to google search terms, while noobs just type a word and give up?
Let's see how I do it.

I feel John Mcains pain....
He had pancreatic cancer 4 years ago... and recently had "some" surgery ( which implies it is not cancer ) and he dropped a LOT of weight.
Some say the whipple ( surgery to reroute around pancreas) could be the culprit. What would Apple be like without him? Last time, it was significantly less than good.
This is Mac OS X software, award winning sold 250K in 1st month! USing any cheap USB cam, bluetooth, cuecat modified, or TYPING in the number beneath the code.
I found the story of how the spaces between the black lines were simple (after he found out) and his massive CD/DVD/Games/Pr0n were so vast he just wanted to keep track of who borrowed them... then a hot UI like iTunes & iPhone before Apple ever had coverflow.
So, since Apple hired this guy, I can see his style all over iPhone, and he already did it!

So, Apple fanboys have been using this for years with FAR worse USB web cams what is that.3 megapixels?
So, it has already been a killer app! Using hardware in every Mac notebook, iMac, and now in any phone.... software only solution...
( Yes, it is a cocoa application which would run easily on iPhone with widget sized controls.... hmmm, that IS a great business plan)
TFA is iPhone hater, which detracts from the article. Of course if he were an Apple fan, he'd see how this gorgeous app works for every day folks keeping track of media...

It's a Treo 650, from 2005? Same specs! OK screen is .6" larger WOW!!!

This is so irrational... Do you know intel isn't PPC compatible? Are cpus & ram also a complaint?
FW 400 (6pin) to FW 800 (9pin) via 2 seconds on google. What exactly is the point? Technology changes? Is this a new thing?
