That price isn't bad. I paged through this Apple book about 10 years ago...loved the minimal design of it all, photos....but umm, $200 was a bit steep to pay for it!

That same book unopened is going for a lot more now.

$200 steep?

It is their cheapest MacBook to date!

What a yawn invoking cover. Look, I get the symbolism (I think!) and I get the tip of the hat to Ive's white minimalism… It just… somehow captures nothing of what has made Apple’s story so fascinating over the years.

I rather keep the memory I have of Apple up to 2011. They are precious.
After that I just enjoy my devices, and care absolutely nothing about the company and avoid the CEO the best I can - thank you.

I like David Pogue, but at $CDN70 (or $CDN54.99 as a Kobo eBook) I'll wait till it hits the used book / remainders bin.

When I want to look at that book I can any time I want and enjoy it, and even have the convenience of it being an “ebook” if you know what I mean! Best of all, this copy is free!
