No I'm not ashamed. I'm just still reeling from the 2,200 pounds that I 
spent on this computer.

The batteries may be consumable, but at 100 pounds per battery (around 
170 dollars) , that's a hefty price for your Lithium Ion battery.

The battery life coupled with expense of an Apple priced accessory 
every year is a "con" for me (in all senses of the word).
