who cares? You don't need buttons with multi-touch.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:10pm

Please allow me to opt out of a glossy screen. If not, I'm buying a lenovo and will install OS X on that.

Seriously? Good luck with your ugly, hacked Lenovo.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:11pm

I believe its fake! Why? If it has got a magnetic latch, how would the latch close? There's no metallic piece there to keep it closed! Looks like someone has been photoshopping an iMac over an Air.

The Macbook Air doesn't have a latch!

Question: Where is the trackpad button?

Ryan (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:18pm

Very valid question....maybe the angle of the picture?

there doesn't really seem to be one? Maybe all multitouch? That would be kind of annoying...

Steve (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:20pm

un-needed with multi-touch.

it doesn't look real to me. Just looks like real good photoshop.

stradijeri1 (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:17pm

Where's the iSight camera?????

stradijeri1 (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:18pm

I see it, sorry.

donny (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:19pm

looks real but man that glossy screen would suck on a sunny day

donny (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:20pm

wait i just realized it doesn't have the "mystery port' on the pictures they showed us yesterday...WTF

I didn't realize the interval was a new record!

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:23pm

Come on. The picture may be blurry but you can see the obvious mistakes.

Look at the top of the screen and move right. The rim is so thick and the goes too thin.

Also in the picture of it closed. The top lid over shoots the bottom. There is no way its going to not have a seamless transition when it is closed.

Fake..

kevinkevin (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:52pm

look at the *open* pic -the frame thickness of the monitor fluctuates -it narrows right around the iSight camera.

nice pics -but fake

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 9:28pm

hey guys, the screen rim is uneven due to the blurriness of the picture, in the same way the bevel appears larger on the left of the front edge than the right, and that the keys are all blurred out. of course, this doesn't help to (dis)prove the validity of the photo.

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 8:28pm

hideous. I'm not buying if there isn't an all black one.

if this is claiming to be the MacBook pro then why does it not have the extra two holes on the farther end of the case. The little round hole and the hole dubbed the batter releaser. Someone forgot to photoshop the MacBook pro case and instead used the MacBook case. We will see in just a few hours! Counting down the minutes untill I get my hands on a new MacBook pro!!!!

9to5Mac Noob (not verified) | October 13, 2008 - 10:05pm

batter releaser?

What? is it a fucking blender now, too?
