It's made of special 'Hard-Air' apparently and filled with helium to make it super light.
Been round this road so many times
Feel like it's skin is part of mine
This taste of milk is almost gone
Still got my shame, but not for long
Been wrong so many times before
But never quite like this
Heard all, in the rain
But the rain all turned to piss

Phew.

Shit, I'm almost sold. She has an old Toshiba mini laptop that was given to us by a friend...I accidently broke it (whilst drunk :oops: ) so this will be a perfect replacement :)

One edge is pointy like an axe so you can defend yourself when someone tries to steal it.

I think that's quite a bit thinner than even that Mac-like one Intel had
built and showed off at IDF.

It's a smidgen ugly. Don't like the fat screen edge and black keys. Design fail. :(

Is the CPU a standard Intel part, or a specially redesigned package, just for Apple?
