Monitor size would be the primary drawback, I'd think. Unless I'm smoking
crack, there's no way to attach a second monitor to the machine, meaning
you're stuck with a single 15" (until they come with a USB or Firewire
connection for monitors ;)). I don't know many people who happily work with
a single 15" anymore. 17" is about a minimum for most folks I know and
according to a recent discussion here, many people are running dual 17's or
better.
Oh, yeah. That mouse. Kensington makes a nice, inexpensive replacement.
If I'm wrong about the dual monitors, please let me know!
