Maybe because of that awful stand you can see on the first pic (center); so they too think it's awful? However, they are trying to ship it with that? Somebody has done something terribly wrong ...

I agree with bluesxman, no slot loading optical drive kills it!

And I have not even got started on the software ... ;-), no need this time.

That's enough - I'll get my coat... it's the one with the apple in the pocket...
