well the middle has the most people, most of the time, so apple has the biggest market.
The middle portion is indeed the largest segment, which is why having a one-size fits all model isn't a very good idea. If you have a men's clothes shop that caters to people from midgets to giants, you don't offer the middle set of clothes with nothing but pink flowers on them. Some people will buy them but only a very niche set of the population.

I think you mean that's the price of Apple not satisfying the middle - they force you into either the bottom or the top or away from their computers altogether. This is the same kind of thinking surrounding the original cube, people aren't buying therefore they don't want it. It's simply they don't want what's on offer because the product is wrong.

You won't have to get a Windows box. My WoW is running under Bootcamp with XP. The game plays better through Bootcamp on my macbook than it does natively on a macbook pro. No joke. Almost all my settings are turned up. And apparently Bootcamp will be standard as of Leopard.When I'm not gaming I simply flip back to mac os
4Metta,
Have you tried running WoW in OSX? It runs better than bootcamp. The installation is off the same CDs. Been working great on my iMac for some time now.

Computers and clothes are not analogous at all.
