Fair point! I don't know what I'll do whenever I eventually have to replace mine. I was lucky (I guess) to get the last model that had a removable drive and the keyboard I ended up loving. I upgraded my storage to 2 gigs and felt that covered everything I cared to change on this one.

But I'll have to seriously reconsider on future models, as I am enticed by the newer Apple chips but have certainly heard the uproar about the relatively small amount of ram offered. And now that we're on the subject, I'm not thrilled about the idea of Apple dropping OS support (i.e., security updates) for older models. I want to upgrade when I'm ready for an overhaul in performance, not just because they want to sell more.

I guess I need to be more specific about "nerd." I find it great for software nerdiness, but I have to admit the only physical use case nowadays is plebian: "just take my money and make it work."
