    I agree.

    I propose that from now on all Apples come with robotic legs, so they can move themselves.

    Not as stupid sa you might think, one of the major things about the iMac originally was it was easy to lug around (although at 15kg, not light) with the built in handle at the back. Probably not a major concern of yours, but having helped move some macs around a computer room at school, it makes a big difference. The Anglepoise ones could be carried around using the main section of the screen support arm and it was retty easy to carry. One of the problems with the new format is the lack of easy handles for lugging, although they are pretty light so I guess it wont be a problem.
