heh, somone posted that on screen savers they showed that the space to the right and left of the BlushBook can be used as a drink holder...woops, there goes my laptop
A 17" 4x3 laptop would be ridiculously huge. Widescreen is a) more pleasing to me than square, and b) allows for large screens in small poratbles. I'm surprised the miniAluBook doesn't have a widescreen. The could make it the size of a medium-sized hardcover book.
Widescreen 'feels less cramped', whatever that means
It looks as if Apple is moving towards 100 or so ppi. That's true of their desktop LCDs as well, with 96 and 98 on the 17" and 23" displays, respectively. 112 might be too high for some, but it would only be a little above the iBook's ppi.</strong><hr></blockquote>LOL! I can't believe that some people are *still* complaining about the "low resolution" (*cough* bradbower *cough*), and comparing them to the 15" DVI Powerbook. It's 1 ppi difference! Some people.
