The black one looks very appealing:
1 gig of ram and a 120 gig hard drive. It's really everything you need in a PC. Shame about the graphics card though, they really should offer an option with a decent graphics card.

Hahaha, touche!
I'm saying in the Macbook form factor. I value size as a big issue as well. I want something small and light that has a graphics card that can play WOW. I'm not asking for much.
Theoretically the GMA950 could do this but at a sucky resolution. It's not worth my trading my current laptop (Radeon 9600) in for a GMA 950 which will most likely give me worse FPS. Then again, I only play WOW and nothing more demanding.
Sigh :p

Go for a Dell. ;) Currently doing everything my heart and mind desires on my Dell Precision notebook. Core2Duo 2.33GHz, 2GB RAM, 512MB Nvidia gfx :p
I play Guild Wars with 1900x1200 at 60 fps, full detail. And like we all know, GW is much prettier than WoW. :p
:D

Hardcore, what size is the screen?
On the other hand, do you get to look like a poser when you take it to a mugg and bean or seattle coffee shop?

Sleek reminds me of the dudes with no hair where the very few strands of hair have been combed flat againts the skull, almost looks like you've been licked by a cow ... ;) :p
