    "MacBook Wheel sports innovated new features like the new Hummingbird Battery, which runs a full 19 minutes before needing to be recharded."

    "The computer is virtually unbreakable, unless dropped or hit."

    "Everything is just a few hundred clicks away."

    "Jobs: People who use keyboards 'standing in the way of human progress'."

    "I'll basically buy anything if it's shiny and made by Apple"

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: So true. That touches on a sentiment I've been feeling for a long time. Apple users had that one coming. My favorite quip from the video is the straight-faced reporter at the end:

    "It remains to be seen whether the Mac Wheel will catch on in the business world where people use computers for actual work and not just dicking around."

    Oh man. So many great ones in that video. The Onion really did a superb satire of the whole Mac fanboi culture with this!

      So... more devoted followers: Mac Fanbois or Scientologists?

        Boy, that's a tough call. I'd be joking if I said Mac fanatics, but we must concede there is a similar spell upon both. :)

                  This might be a competitor to MS "surface computer". Or Apple got the idea first, and MS borrowed it.

                    $2499 for the basic model. $9999 for the full model. Of course, it's all a fake. :)

                      Damn, and I actually took the time to look, too. I must've skimmed over it...
