How can a company that seems to be so in tune with its customers on the Human Engineering/Interface front, giving them what they didn't even no they wanted until they saw it, miss so badly with Government/Contractor/Corporate America. Or have they just given up on this segment of customers. I have a G4 laptop that I desperately need to upgrade, but like most of corporate America on the go I can't use any of Apple's new laptops because they all have built in cameras. Why can't apple see the need of this segment of their customers that need a version of the lap top without the camera or better yet a removable camera. Two years ago I could not find a high end Cell Phone with Bluetooth that did not have a camera built in. Cell phone Companies quickly caught on that a major segment of their customers could not use cell phones with cameras, but still needed the other high end features. Now most offer sans camera models of their high end phones. Apple still doesn't get it.

Apple hasn't really been targeting mass corporate users with their laptops for a while, or else they'd have ports for docking stations, and up until the MacBook, the hard drives weren't easily swapped.
