Apple (UK and Ireland)

I personally think that it looks revolting, and is worse than the macbook.

You guoys?

I think if I layed a hand on it, it would snap in half.

People said that about the nano. One of my particular hates for it is, the shape.

It would be nice if it was just a rectangle, but it's slopey and curvey. And all weird shapes. eeew.

well i think its an amazing design but as far as practicality if concerned its in no way suitable for a busy student or office commuter. i find it hard enough to take care of my g5 macbook!

That's stupidly thin. If I'm paying a grand for a computer, I want a bit of meat on it.

It's cute and Apple never ceases to amaze me with their innovation. however it wouldn't be something that I'd purchase....I got my eye on a Macbook Pro!

It makes me cream my pants, I love it and I think Stevie did a good job on this one.

That doesn't make sense. There's no such thing as a g5 macbook. There was a g4 powerbook but they couldn't put another processor chip in it made by motorola, the g5, because it ran too hot. To much fanfare, and apple fan suprise, they switched to intel processors and that's when the macbooks started.

And wouldn't it be a g5 ibook anyway? (if it did exist)

sorry i used to have a g5 imac and get mixed up when chatting about them, if you really want to know mines a 2007 intel based macbook with a 2.16ghz processor, 2 gig of ram and a 160 gig hard drive. i hope that clear now.
