I like much of Nokia's design. Nothing so much as the beauty of the N800, but that's just my taste.

And in the same way, much of Apple's design isn't my taste either. I don't like the wide, shallow, square keys of their keyboards, I'm not a fan of the smooth-and-sleek look, either.

If you argue with me and say that Apple's design is superior in so many ways, I'll say, OK, if you say so, but I'm not a fan.

I guess part of the problem is that I hate the design of all laptops. I thought they were somewhat cool in the mid 90s, but I really feel that the laptop (and the netbook, and all other laptop variants) needs to just go away as a product category. It is a terrible kludgy hack solution and kudos to Apple for trying, but you just can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear.

Whoa, sorry. Offtopic.
