It isn't a laptop, it is a jumbo iPhone where the architecture doesn't matter; it is a totally different device so the end user does not have the same expectations that they would have a netbook which simply looks like a small laptop (and thus expect to be able to run all their favourite software). Apple is successful because they market their products well and give the customer what they want - you can sit back and have and intellectual debate over what people should value, just as I can debate the sorry state of music these days shows the descent of our culture, but at the end of the day people buy what they want.
