From reports off the net, quite a few people are having heat issues with these air's even heating up so much that the system turns off one of the cpu cores thus reducing usability greatly..

Gizmodo also have a video of the pulling apart process http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2008/01/ma...ide_too-2.html

But wait, theres the optional solid state hard drive. Please tell me its not flash based. One of my flash drives went bad after less than 1 yr of being used like a portable harddrive hardly booting off it.

I want to see someone hit it with a hammer, once, one the bottom..see how much damage you can do to your brand new Commodore 64.
It would have to be flash based, how would ANY HDD fit in that puny thing?

I just want to snap it in half..you know those things where you want to break it so bad? I've got that sort of thing to it..
someone needs to do a stress test..like..how will it fare to bending, flexing..etc, and then how waterproof it it.
