Nice one Ryan. I'll be looking forward to seeing more.
One thing: no sign of any space allocated for the Pismo on your site,
despite its undoubted excellence as an example of how a laptop should be
designed. It's not that I'd contest your inclusion of the 5300 or the
iBook. I just want to suggest adding the Pismo. Among other things, I'd
point to its brilliant battery life, its easy accessibility for that
sometimes necessary, on-the-road upgrade or maintenance work, its flexible
connectivity, its satisfying aesthetic (the organic beauty of the Pismo is
unparallelled) and its handy right-hand slot that carries the CD/DVD drive
but can also take a 2nd battery (giving me a whopping 12 hours of continuous
use) or even a second HD on a sled. Surely all these features qualify the
Pismo for a place of honour amongst the Macs of the recent past, no?
