Nikkei’s english news website, Tech-On, gathered some engineers in a room and gave them a MacBook Air to take apart.  What did they find?

The engineers all came to the same conclusion; the MacBook Air is badly designed and would cost too much to produce (meaning that there are better ways to do the job cheaper).

No news here.  Apple doesn’t make good technology, they make good commercials, something most of us have always known.

I’m a bit surprised by the arrogance of some of these so called engineers. I’m not a PRO Apple Fan Boy (even if I do own a MacBook Pro), but a sentence like this one makes me mad: “I can’t find anything that is technically superior. We can make the same computer at a lower cost”

We can only assume the author is so upset because he paid an extra $1,000 for his laptop, because it is white.
