There Is More to this MacBook than Meets the Eye


 

“Once you go MacBook, you won’t go back.”

So I took a little liberty with that expression, but who cares? I think that anyone who has worked on one of these babies knows that it is quite hard to go back to a Windows machine – hard but not impossible. Now, if you were to have a MacBook that behaved just like Optimus Prime and the rest of the gang, then turning it in would be a hideous thought at best.

Check out this video of a transforming MacBook, which I saw on YouTube today.

Truth be told, I find it rather silly. Don’t get me wrong – I like the whole idea. I actually found myself chuckling as I watched the video. That doesn’t change the fact that it is silly, though, does it? And, as much as I would want a MacBook that transformed into some other toy, I wouldn’t want to risk thousands of dollars flying out of that window, would you?

    I saw that vid. I would rather have a robot toy that can actually transform than a laptop with all your pr0… I mean important project files fly away.

    As someone who has limited funds, I cannot justify the price of a MacBook used to create documents, watch videos, and browse the Internet – the same things can be done with a cheaper laptop, similar specs, with Ubuntu installed. (Unless of course you are the kind of person who does more with Mac OS X than Ubuntu but for the basic stuff, it’s all there.)
