.Kompressor Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 conceptual or not it looks like it could be the real deal... this is not the first place I've seen this design before. Better take a look now before apple catches it.

the evn show Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 The first on presumably places the "guts" behind the screen which would make the item very top-heavy and unstable. Assuming thats a full size keyboard the machine would be monsterous. Assuming it's using reduced-sized keys (which nobody wants) then they've wasted a whole whack of space for no good reason. The images make them both seem widely impractical. Also, the shadow+reflection looks rediculous, I wish people would pirate a book or two on design and art before they pirated photoshop.

neufuse Veteran Posted October 9, 2007 Veteran Share Posted October 9, 2007 That would be a very stupid design as the keyboard would be so light the screen would pull it into the air on that round pivot point..

LunarFalcon Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 It's pretty though! Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/593024-could-this-be-the-new-macbook-or-pro-thin-design/#findComment-588908001 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterC Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Looks like all they did was take the current iMac, smash it into the new wired keyboard, and add some Apple-esque shininess and reflections. Looks like crap, imo. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/593024-could-this-be-the-new-macbook-or-pro-thin-design/#findComment-588908008 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Patriot Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Also, the shadow+reflection looks rediculous, I wish people would pirate a book or two on design and art before they pirated photoshop. To be fair, the reflection in the first picture has the same kind of effect that the Dock in Leopard has. Check out some of the screenshots of Leopard's Dock (pay attention to the reflection of the Trashcan for example) and compare them to this. It seems that the Dock's designers didn't read up on design either.

Vice Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 That looks awful. The current MBP's look amazing and in my opinion no improvements could currently be done.

APH-Alex Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Rofl, the top one is just a cut off iMac screen put up against the new wireless keyboard, and then they added a crappy finger pad.. EDIT: Rofl, they crappily extended the keyboard and, might I add cut off some pixels in the process, and THEN added the crappy finger pad.. :p EDIT AGAIN: Lol in the bottom picture the finger pad is just a gradiented box :p And in the shadow, or reflection, it faded to a blue colour.. :s Lol I pirated photoshop and I know a little more on design than this guy.. +1 to the crappy reflection comment though Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/593024-could-this-be-the-new-macbook-or-pro-thin-design/#findComment-588908027 Share on other sites More sharing options...
