So basically by discussing this, and a case that might be used to carry it (what niche case are you referring to? A Pelican? Rimowa? The Sony Tap 20 Case they sell? - none of these are exactly niche cases any more than an iPad cover is 'niche') somehow this gets you angry or paranoid when in fact what I am discussing is something you wouldn't understand - there's a bunch of people in the creative arts (like me, for example) who fly and need the largest screen they can fly with. Read my posts carefully about the history of it all, with the 21" and 27" iMacs people used to - and still do - lug around.

The article linked was useful and not humor at all. There are plenty of people I know using 20" laptops in cafes going back 5+ years now. I've seen them.

If you'd care to contribute to the thread without attacking people based on your paranoid views of people 'pushing' 'odd niche product[s]' then go ahead, but please take your medicine first.

By the way, did you hear about the iPad? It was a niche product too at one time, probably according to you. Do I have your permission to post something about that one?
