    That's pretty funny. Back in the PPC G5 days, I asked if people would buy a 2" thick Powerbook G5. Suffice to say, nobody wanted it.

    Did I mention it has an anti-gravity emitter that makes it weigh 3lbs?

    No you didn't. I guess it's too expensive then.

    See, a TRUE FanBoy Edition wouldn't have ANY batteries…



    It would be powered by a Reality Distortion Transformer…!

    That much is certain, even if you figured out how to make it 1 cm thick.

    It is absolutely possible; see previously.

    I'd be happy to buy that - I'd love a portable workstation. Maybe an 18.6" or 19.4" screen?



    Dual graphics cards - can be run in SLI mode.

    Dual Harddrives for striped RAID.



    Yep, I'd be all over that like a soccer coach and your step-sister.

    If I was creating my ideal version of the Macbook Pro I would put all of the ports in the back

    instead of the side (except for the headphone jack which I'd leave alone.) I wouldn't need two

    gigabit ethernet ports & expresscard slots, one each.



    The back would be 1.25 to 1.4 inches that tapers to 0.8 inches in the front (to accommodate

    the excess heat.)



    It would have a 19" screeen with a 16x9 ratio (similar shape to that new netbook that Sony just

    showed at CES.)



    Full-size keyboard with two options:

    1) On the left side of the keyboard would have the the directional keys along f14, f15, f16, help,

    home, & etc. On the right side of the keyboard would have the number pad.

    2) Option two would have them swapped.



    Quad-core chip & blu-ray burner (which will be compatible with iMovie & iDvd.)



    Top of the line GPU.



    More options when it comes to storage (Up to 1 terabyte hard drives or 512gig SSDs.)

    No FW3200? No buy!



    Would be nice to have that many USB ports on my iMac though sometimes.
