You can use Apple's Macbook Air simply for, well, writing letters and surfing the Internet.

HP laptops are poo on a stick. What he should of done is mashed the cake up with a clunky HP laptop, cause that's all they're good for.

Interesting. I would like to see a slim offering like this from HP, but if they want to compete with the Macbook air, they certainly have their work cut out for em'.
The Air has a 0.16 to 0.76 inch. And at just 3.0 pounds... and its 13.3-inch, 1280-by-800 resolution LED backlit display is actually pretty crisp to look at from what I've seen (in stores and such).
Something I randomly thought about was that the Macbook Air was using a smaller 1.6GHz or 1.8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo chip, due to the tight dimensions inside the case. I wonder if HP is going to use some kind of custom 45 nm Intel chip.
Also, a true competing product will have to offer more than just bloat software. Its certainly nice to have programs like Garage Band included with the Mac... It will be interesting if HP addressed this at all.
Anyway, maybe I'm speculating too much from this little joke >.>

Why? HP has access to the same hardware Apple does for the most part, it's Intel chips, with Intel chipsets, logically there's no reason anyone couldn't do the same, even thinner, those two parts are by far not the least power consuming or heat dissipating of Intel's lineup.

Why? If it's cheaper... and that's the key... if... I'd rather just take a system and figure out what software I want myself and whether or not I want to pay for it when I use it, not pay a premium before.
It's fun to say Windows sux and all but really WindowsXP or even Vista is perfectly stable when you're as careful as Apple is with hardware QC and limit your software library to stuff only you develop.

They won't and don't need to. They only need to make it cheaper, which is highly possible.
If they don't, well then they're pretty much wasting their time.
