Slab
Instead of a Cube II, I'd like to see Apple remove the display/keyboard/trackpad from their 15" Powerbook, then increase the height to two inches giving us a "Slab" that fits nicely under any Cinema display. The increased height would allow for two processors, a tray-loading 2x speed DVD-R mechanism and better cooling. Two Firewire800, two USB2, and two DVI ports in the rear, please. Plus, this Slab footprint/form factor would also look great for a TIVO-like home theatre product.
