Yeah, it's the same aluminum chassis they gave us at MacWorld 2002. Same old, same old. Now leveraged for the MBA. Evidently, soon to be leveraged YET AGAIN for the "new" MacBook.
It DOES a great job of blocking the Airport signal. I get 55 more feet of signal in my $1500 Blackbook than my wife gets in her $3500 MBP, and it annoys her to no end :-)
I am soooooo tired of the whole metal look. I bought that Titanium G4, the 2 aluminum MBP's - one IBM, one Intel - I bought this Blackbook just to FINALLY have something different.
You'd think that after 6 or 7 years, somebody in the now defunct design group at Apple might have had one original idea? Why must we be fed the same laptop case year after year after year after year after year after year?
uh huh, it is
