Is there a smaller MacBook planned?

I like the MacBook, but it is basically the same size as my G4 Powerbook. I would like something more portable. Does anyone know if Apple is planning an ultra-portable notebook like those that can be found on the PC side (ie 3lbs; 11" screen)?

Long speculated, nothing concrete.

Because I want something light and portable for travel. There are a bunch of ultraportables on the PC side, but I prefer Macs.
Any other questions I can answer for you?

The rumors mills don't say anything about a 12" MacBook.
A 12" MacBook Pro has been the talk of rumors for quite a while now. I just don't see a 12" MacBook Pro released until after the Santa Rosa set gets released in a few months.
So far, there have been no real information from the factories that typically Apple portables about any orders from Apple....

Sure... on the possibility of price hikes [or drops?] in future...
Which of the formula for calculation elementary aggregate indices (i.e. a geometric mean and arithmetic mean) is the most appropriate for an index intended to be used as an inflation measure?

I'd go with the blue one.

Oh man, I took Lab Stats years ago.....if I remember right, the Geometric Mean gives a more accurate representation of the cost of living except when zero substitution behavior is present (when price = 0), which is where the arithmetic mean (Dutot Index, or the ratio of the arithmetic average) comes in. So all in all, when approximating inflation, it's likely that the GM is preferable.
