As if we needed another piece of evidence that the MacBook Air is the ultimate lust object of the style-conscious intelligentsia, consider this: Charlie Rose, the PBS talk show host known for his deep, probing and often ponderous conversations with celebrities and authors, appeared on his show the other night with a bandage on his eye that he earned diving to the pavement headfirst to protect his Air. Sooner his face – a TV host’s most important asset – than his computer.
I stand corrected. Without any question, Apple has completely reframed the value of a computer. It’s worth more than a career on PBS.

THis is another reason why we should start making laptops shells out of Superball material.
Geez, Chuck. Next time use your Gold Card (Platinum more likely). AMEX will replace it for you with their protection plan.
And you’d think somebody who worked for CBS would remember what a face plant did to Lesley Visser.
