The Mac vastly improves upon the ease of using a personal computer. The iPod vastly improves upon the ease of (effectively) using an MP3 player. What other "lifestyle appliances" are difficult to use or have poor usability?
- Extensive A/V systems
- VCR's
- PDA's
- Cell phones
- Automobile computer systems
The last one intriques me the most. No, this is not the fabled chip in the engine compartment that controls shift points and things like that. This is the collection of systems in the "cockpit" of the car: GPS, stereo, heating/air conditioning controls. Most of these systems are very difficult to use and this level of difficulty prevents you from A) driving B) using them to their full potential.
But what if... (cue music please)
Apple designed an "automobile computer system" and it was installed in a heck of a cool car (BMW M3?). Voice recognition, always-on wireless, and a sweet interface.
GPS? No problem.
Hands-free cell? No problem.
Listen/dictate emails and IMs? No problem.
Price tag? Perhaps a little bit of a problem.
It could happen -- full speed ahead and lust factor ten.
Rather this than a TiBook with a larger processor and a 10x CD-RW.

The full speed ahead thing may have a double meaning as in that Mac SanFran is coming soon, and also as a CPU speed metaphor. Now how many things have a lust factor of ten? I know the female species think i have a lust factor of ten. Female life gaurds running in slow-mow on Baywatch have a lust factor of ten! Heck some of you may even think Fake Britney Spear porn images have a lust factor of ten (u perverts)! A Mac kicking a PC's ass or even a SGI's ass in 3d rendering, now a mac like that will definetley have a lust factor of OSX!!!!!
