No one needs 1Ghz in a laptop
Just like no one needed more than 640k of memory "back in the day"? Lets stop ALL technological and scientific research because software wont get more advanced and everyone's happy with the speed their laptop.....
I haven't worked there since I left for college, but I remember AT&T or VTech making a decent headset cordless phone, and it wasnt that expensive if memory serves.
"You can't even buy the new Mac yet but you already claim that its flat screen is superior. Why don't you wait and see what the quality really is before passing judgment?"
I'm mainly a PC guy, but I also just got a Powerbook G4, and I've used several macs belonging to my friends. Every LCD Apple puts it's name on is the best. From the 12 inch iBook screen to the monsterous 22 inch Cinema screen, and my G4 screen is no different. Apple knows how to make an LCD and the iMac screen looks just like their 15 inch screen they sell with the G4 towers just mounted differently.
And while the new iMac DOES kick ass (I want one..) and the 14inch iBook screen is awesome too (makes it a little closer to the TiBook) it's no Apple PDA, which would have made me a very happy (and mac portable) guy.

It's called MacOS X
