Will it be a problem if I order another in a few days.. can you put both of them in the same envelope or is there going to be database issues (it's a just in case question)

I'm in the same boat. 8GB is an overkill for me. I only need 4GB max. I have a 2GB already and I haven't had issues filling that. 8GB is too small to run one of my VM's and too large for documents. |

Ooooo, look at the Emporer's new clothes!
I'm just wondering what people are finding so attractive about these devices - is it just their physical appearance? They're not that great a bargain, elsewhere one can find 16GB keys for $99, they are of unknown speed, and by the time they arrive in July, their contemporary price may have blown out

Also their size - When plugged in, it's the size of a lego brick. |

This from a Mac User???
You use a Computer that has the highest margin in the industry, and use as it main marketing strategy its physical appearance.

Can they connect to a MacBook Air, or isn't there enough space?

Sorry, you'd be wrong.
I use a Mac because it offers the most stable, POSIX-standards' compliant programming platform for my teaching and research. I'd buy a beige one if it met my criteria.

Trust me, from selling both, Macs do NOT have the highest margin in the industry. Some of the smallest. By a fair bit. |

So I am wrong because your not using a computer from a company that has the highest margin in the industry, and uses its "look" as a marketing strategy?
Why you use a computer is your call, I stand by my points. Your the one proclaiming that the emperor has new clothes, asking why people are finding these deals so interesting.
Next time post where these amazing deal you have found are, or even help out with a bulk buy. But dont dump on people who do this.
