Another MacBook Touch concept

As a Product Designer (Or Aspiring one) I am very impressed, the concept is good, the renders are amazing, and its well thought out aswell.

Only problem is OLED currently isnt flexible in sizes much bigger than 2 or 3 inches, and cant display full colour, but your definitely looking ahead.

I Would buy one in an instant!

wow finally a concept worth checking out. good job!

oh wow very nice concept. you put some time into that i can tell. the results are amazing!

i'd buy one as well but the idea of a touch screen keyboard doesnt suit me. for i dont like typing on touch screens these days

Positively brilliant. I eagerly anticipate the day technology could do this.

Awesome.

That's amazing. I wonder what the price of that would be ...

Very interesting. In my opinion, I think it looks a bit bulky and the "rubber/plastic" sides at the joint look a bit weak like they would crack after heavy use.


Great job though!

Ahhh yes, I knew these looked familiar. You were linked on 9to5mac.com

Pretty cool.

haha who wouldn't buy one in an instant

great job!

Wow... I want it! I doubt well see that kind of technology for a few years, but that is something apple would come out with before anyone else did!

Nice job!

That is brilliant. VERY well done. Make some more concepts!

Dude, get a patent or something on these concepts, because they're good enough that someone could seriously rip them off. This is outstanding work.

You've got awesome design skill. I like the inner design, not so much for the exterior. You should try an alternative with rounded part like the unibody lid. Might look better then the sharp corners you have there.

Fantastic!

I want one.

i think i have seen those flex mockups somewhere else before....

DO WANT.

I can't see Apple going for the "iSpine" tech though. It's not really their style.

Very impressive. I've thought about a similar design myself and I really hope we see something like this in the near future. As long as that touch screen had tactile feedback (or at least on half of it) I'd certainly be buying one.

You deserve a job with the Apple design team in California.

I was thinking the same thing, I think Apple would more likely do a "iSlide" or something rather than a "iSpine."

Edit - thought i'd seen those recently - there's a thread mentioning your work here also

It's only $1999...

OP - you should apply for a job at Apple.

I want them. Now. NOW.

I mentioned this on another thread, but I like the "Laptop or Canvas" bit best.

I would buy this in a heartbeat.

The only thing I would change is that the magic dock should raise the height of the macbook touch to suit eye level better, but it's not necessary as normal laptop displays are that height anyway.

Also, I doubt apple will ever come up with a predominantly touch-screen device that uses regular OSX, I'd say it would use mobile OSX.

wow this looks really really expensive.. but totally worth it!

Awesome idea. I would love to see OLED screens actually used like this.
