Intel iBook mock-up...sweet

i am loving the look o' that! yummy...
all nice, white 'nd thin. but, no iSight is a real let down, and it better have a 13.3 and good performance/battery...to mention a few things ;)

I really want them to do away with this white exterior, I thought it was fun... for a while. And then the dirt and grime started to show.... It's kinda gross and my whole iBook is kinda gray now. How about a black Book to coincide with the new black iPods?

Odd - a tags don't work?

*That's how the border of the current iBook looks
*what's wrong with the right bottom side?
*the screenshot looks fine to me

and even if there was something wrong with it, stop being a hater

Thanks tdungan! :)

Gee Karl (Klar) why spend time blogging, or building guitars with four necks, or playing WoW, or surfing the internet for that matter. The nice thing in this world is that you don't have to understand EVERYTHING in order to appreciate it.
Maybe William was bored the other day. Maybe he wanted to express his desire for something. Interest may die right here and now or it may continue for some time to come. But if you don't have anything constructive to say, why bother saying it at all?
I, for one, wish there were more people like William and Yann and Isamu. A LOT of us enjoy imagining what possibilities the future holds.

First of all, I really like the design.

I highly doubt we'll see a built-in iSight in the iBooks (see below). My prediction is they will try to make this as cheap as possible, more of a laptop equivalent to the Mac Mini. A cheap(er), basic laptop. Think $600-$800. I would expect it to have many of the MacBook Pro's features (scrolling trackpad, drop protection (both of which are in current iBooks), and the magsafe connector). However, I would not expect a built-in iSight, illuminated keyboard, or ExpressCard slot. I expect these to stay MacBook Pro exclusive, as they were with the PowerBooks (as much as I would love an iBook with an illuminated keyboard.)

Also, I would be surprised to see the iBook renamed MacBook. I know it seems like the obvious choice, and may happen, but I just think having 2 products with nearly the exact same name would provide for consumer confusion. I think the Pro in MacBook Pro has a lot to do with marketing and it being perceived as a high-end laptop.

I guess we'll find out soon enough.

Hey Everybody, i was the one that made this. I am in the middle of doing a new version of this design, i am making the bezel thinner, changing name to macbook and maybe adding an isight. "I guess if one has a lot of time on thier hands...", it only took me an hour.
