I'm guessing that to precisely cut into a brick of alumnium (check the update link below the pic) you would need to use laser...thus it might be a confirmation that the new macbook will have the one piece aluminum as a case. I doubt that it'll be about wireless tech, but a good idea though.

you clearly know precisely

you clearly know precisely nothing about manufacturing. You can 'precisely cut aluminum' with any mill you can find in any shop in the world, been done for a very very long time.

Manufacturing a case this way would be nothing short of insane, the cost would be ridiculous.

Wait, This is an image leeked

Yup. We grow leeks by the bushel at our farm. We grow so many that we built a vegetable stand with the sign: "Please Stop and Take a Leek".

That's funny.

Data Store

Thu, 10/02/2008 - 8:07pm — 9to5Mac Noob (not verified)

Cryptonomicon talked of a secure data storage facility. Imagine a localized .Mac, with a media server as the brick. Smaller devices come out at a cheaper price, but along with them everyone buys the 'brick' as well to store and sync their data and media. Or combine the mac mini with the AppleTV , with some smart syncing (hopefully over wifi or 3G), and you get the brick.
