Did You Know… (A Fact About MacBook Air)

…. that most (if not all) of it’s parts are IRREPLACEABLE?

So it means, that if your hard drive conks out, your graphics card gets fried, or your RAM gets busted, you basically have to buy a brand new unit!

Since the MacBook Air is so tiny, most of its parts are made specifically for it. Like the hard drive I think is around 1.8 inch in thickness. Where the hell are you going to buy hard disks in that size? I highly doubt if Apple will mass produce hard disks in that size just for the MacBook Air owners. And even if the parts are available, I bet they would be so ridiculously overpriced. Like everything else with Apple. (and isn’t it soooo ironic I’m an Apple user?!)

And not only that, most of the parts are soldered ONTO the casing of the MacBook Air. Just taking the damn thing apart, will probably be such a pain.

Wooohoo, talk about PRETTY (and i mean, PRETTY) expensive! It’s practically a disposable laptop for the pricey price of $1799!

Batteries, atleast, are still replaceable though!
