Just looks like some cheap plastic arranged in a seemingly random manner to look almost like a laptop.

I'll pass.

Tilted laptops are bad for your wrists. I'd take my Macbook over carpal tunnel any day...

Because it's against the Apple EULA and potentially illegal since it involves cracking security to get it to run on non-Apple hardware.

And I agree with some of the others, I don't like it. It's ugly and poorly designed.

I think it is a great laptop, but I hear they are having trouble keeping up with demand... I just can't justify spending that kind of money on it.

idk, $1300 seems like a lot when you look at what you get: only 1.5 GHz processor, integrated graphics, etc. I don't like the design at all. The thick black and silver bezel around the screen makes the screen look so small. The keyboard looks a bit cheap and unremarkable. The trackpad and buttons look kind of small. Plus I just don't like that wedge design many laptop makers go for. They're trying to make a thick laptop (1.3 inches in this case) look thinner up front.

I'll stick Apple's products. They may be a little more simple, but that''s part of what makes them much more beautiful and elegant.

yeah, it is nice. build time for those is still out to next month and beyond though.

it's tilted to that extreme because it has the 9 cell battery on it, not the standard 6 or less. they don't stick out that far behind or below.

HDMI output? Thats a really high end feature for 1300.

iBook G3 - You'll be missed.
The old old powerbooks had legs that popped out of the bottom, it would allow you to tilt the laptop at an angle... sooo i guess you could say apple already thought about it ;)
