Yeah, it's a little pricey. I'll wait for the 12" model which should be below $1500.

Have Asus published prices on theirs yet?. I saw a lot of Duo Core notebooks were announced at CES but didn't see any pricing.

"After Jobs' presentation, Apple Senior Vice President Phil Schiller addressed the issue of running Windows on Macs, saying there are no plans to sell or support Windows on an Intel-based Mac. "That doesn't preclude someone from running it on a Mac. They probably will," he said. "We won't do anything to preclude that."

However, Schiller said the company does not plan to let people run Mac OS X on other computer makers' hardware. "We will not allow running Mac OS X on anything other than an Apple Mac," he said. "
