Can somebody please explain how Apple can possibly put the Australian Price of a MacBook (2.1Ghz, White) UP by $150 whilst everywhere else is getting the same amount OFF??

These laptops are overpriced and under-featured. A $2000 (Australian, so about $1400 US) laptop without firewire, with a 160GB HDD etc.

Apple has lost their minds. I'm expecting the extremely slow response by customers (due to the fact that they feel used and cheated) will result in a significant price cut by Christmas... Which is good - I LOVE THESE LAPTOPS, but not the premium price I am expected to pay for it...
