Hey gang, I saw this on Facebook tonight in an ad. When you clicked the link it said win a MacBook Air, but this picture, if real, sure looks like it might be a black aluminum MacBook. Good luck dissecting, like I know you will.
Check it out here (http://picasaweb.google.com/donshell64/Postings?authkey=zIr0XXU-85s#5247923410522708946).

You, sir or ma'am, need to format the picture so we can see it. Take the root URL and click the "Insert Image" button in the posting field...and it takes care of everything for you.
I also doubt this is real or new. :[

i see that scam thing 3 times a day on facebook, its been around for months. and that doesnt look like aluminum at all. More like super shiny plastic. It is obviously some photoshopped PC computer with an apple logo stuck on it.
sorry but nothin special.

It doesn't seem to want to work with the insert image. But the link works. and here's the link to the actual company that was running the ad:

Um... nope. It's not thin enough to be an Air. It's a glossy black MacBook... somehow. Someone probably just changed the color.

just about to say that! colorware makes it all shiny. the original is matte finish.

I opened twenty tabs using the link in the first post. Same image every time.
IT'S. A. MACBOOK. Were you to actually look at a picture of a MacBook Air, you would see that it is thin. The MacBook hinge is that hinge. The MacBook speaker/heat dissipation grills are those grills. It's not an Air.

some people are looking at the companies home page and not the link in the original post, the homepage has a macbook air, the other pic is a black macbook that is shiny for some reason, just a bad ad thats all..

It actually looks as if someone made a picture based on the description here: http://blogs.computerworld.com/apples_macbook_redesign_noise_reaching_a_fever_pitch - black outside with aluminium edges...

There's no leak. Apple is making sure no one sees the new MacBook before they release it. :(

Why would a scam get a leaked photo of a MB?
Definitely a fake...
