Re: Why Does Apple Hate Me?

Apparently, nobody at Apple has ever considered the idea that you might
want to access the internet outside of a city, worse, away from
civilization - for example, sitting in a field or, oh, I dunno, how
about in a hotel where the connection cost is as much as the room. No
PCMCIA slot. Apple has always presented itself as a religion and I
guess they're thinking that if you switch from Windows you should
divest yourself of all those nasty wordly things like PCMCIA cards that
allow your laptop to be a useful tool rather than a fashion accessory.

Every laptop maker is moving away from PC cards. Apple just did it sooner. If this is a requirement, then don't buy a Mac.
