There are rumors that we'll see a MacBook with no wires (charges using inductive charging) and possibly an ultraportable (crossing my fingers).
What are your predictions? This post has been edited by pebkac: Feb 10 2008, 10:24 PM -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

One that thin would be nifty, but no optical drive would suck ass, and that "solution" of just borrow one from a computer on the network is pathetic.

Considering most software can be downloaded it doesn't matter to me. The only time I've ever used my optical drive was to install XCode and I've had my computer a year and a half. There is an external optical drive available, just like for the Sonys. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Well let me rephrase that... it would suck ass for me, as one of my laptop's primary uses is to watch DVDs while on trips and such. It just seems cheesy to me to remove the optical drive (still a vital device for a lot of people) just to make the thing an extra 1/4" thinner. |

True, for a lot of people the compromise isn't worth it. I don't use my laptop to watch DVDs (I usually watch a few episodes of TV shows from BitTorrent). -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
