I'm using the original Stick as a low power headless iTunes server to share my media library from a NAS to the iDevices on my network. Works great in this scenario.
I really hope they keep the non-Retina MacBook Pro in their line-up and upgrade it to Haswell. There's a chance, because from what I've read, they're pretty popular in the education market.
Right now, apart from the Mac mini, it's the only user-serviceable computer in Apple's line-up, with easy RAM and disk upgrades. And yes, some of us actually need that Ethernet port and a DVD-ROM drive!
This.
Plus iOS has pretty decent restriction policies you can set up on the device itself or through external PC applications like the Apple Configurator, though for whatever reason these features are marketed towards business and education users, so no average Joe knows about them.
Get Windows 8, install ClassicShell from http://www.classicshell.net/ and you're set. You've got your Start button back along with the menu and you log in straight to the desktop instead of the Metro interface. From now on it works just like Windows 7.
And about moving options around, just how often do you really change those? If all you do all day is change your prefs, then yes - Windows 8 is not for you. If OTOH you just configure the OS once and forget about it, than finding the settings is not such a big issue, even if they are moved to some other place.

The only things that belong in the title bar are the close button, the dock button, and the zoom to max content size button on the left, the window title in the middle, and the toolbar button on the right.
Are you some kind of an Apple HIG fanboy? Is this a sub-cult of the Apple cult of some sort?
The way Chrome does tabs halfway in the title bar makes perfect sense. This approach leaves more screen real estate for the content, while retaining the ability to grab the top of the window to move it around.
Besides, Apple breaks it's own HIG quite often. iTunes, Mac App Store - those are the main culprits in the current version of OS X. And God forbid you from using the Address Book in Lion.
Face the fact that the user base is too small for Microsoft to bother to port the code. Not that they didn't do it in the past - Internet Explorer for UNIX.

Running Windows XP Embedded, and connected to the internet for convenient maintenance. What could possibly go wrong?
You know that Windows XP Embedded is supported at least until January 2019?
shutting down your entire network and making every other device on it unusable?
Ever heard of QoS?

Yes, next the local doctors (all two of them) will inject sick kids with those microwaves coming from Google's balloons...
"availability of electricity"
Electricity is a luxury in the 3rd world. Same as a paved road to the nearest town that has a doctor. Try to provide these two with a hot-air balloon.

Lets not forget that the new Nissan Cube is designed by the Renault-Nissan Alliance.
That's no good for for those of us who put our computers to sleep instead of shutting down.
With Mozilla's frequency of spitting out new and newer versions, I just can't keep up!
No problem, just turn automatic updates on.

You can still get a brand new Touchpad for $220-240 for the 16 GB model. That's still cheap for a tablet like this.

I'm in Europe, Poland to be exact, and Skype works fine, so no, it's not an OMG W0RdLWiDE OuTaGE (!!!!!!1!!!one!!!), as the title suggests.

I bet he was. I'm using Opera on my Mac right now and it renders /. with no problems.
