Their achilles heel seems to be their actual fans; fans set expectations unreasonably high so an otherwise great product - isn't good enough. With the popularity of OS X growing the idea of the MacBook Air makes sense, but not the price. It is a capable machine for the average user, though no body else. A MacBook is no strain or hassle to carry: I own one, I know. I also agree that Apple is leading other companies in terms of design, customer support, and staying recent.

Yes I agree with you maybe not the best keynote, but not a failure by any means.

The MacBook Air is definitely a step in the right direction. I was hoping this year we would see new cinema displays. I can't comment on the actual keynote speech until they post it for download. Overall, I agree that this keynote was not a failure, but nothing especially groundbreaking. I agree that Apple is well above other companies at the moment for the products it makes.
