sweet. sandisk cruzer is 60 Euros .....and not in any way similar to the disposable crap you show here. Do your resaearch before posting nonsense. Sorry but my demands to storage security and speed seem differnt to yours. IF you are content with the sticks you show here fine, but dont call the higher quality product badly designed.

And you are right, there are some pc notebooks which are just as bad as apple. Its just that most PC notebooks offer a third usb port on the opposite side of the machine, so at least two ports can be used at the same time. apple macbook pro 15 " only offers two, making it just one usable.(if you look at your own pic here you will see that the sony book has THREE usb portson one side, which gives also at least two usable ports).
I am not bashing apple here, but if one needs to use more than one external usb device, apple is certinly not the optimum product here. In addition I have to say that I cannot understand why such an expensive product as mac book 15 " offers less usb ports than many pc books which are several hundred euros cheaper . This is just a bad design decision from a usability point of view and for me peronsally, an argument not to buy a macbook again.
