Nice. :)

Two very little niggles:

1. The little gap between the screen hinge and the rest of the case at the bottom should be filled in or something. Make it a little more flush.

2. Name you're threads with something a little more accurate/less misleading. ;)

Otherwise, I reckon it looks great.

Are those USB ports on the side?

I think it's a vent... because a vent's all a G5 PowerBook would need to keep cool and operational.

:D

It is a nice looking mock-up though. Good job!

I don't know if you saw the announcement that Apple will be using Intel in a year, but I take that as a sure sign that we'll never see a Powerbook G5. But who says this can't be the design for a Powerbook Pentium M? ;)

Nice work. I can tell you put some major time into this, but i think it looks just a little too much like a giant personal DVD player from Kmart.

The reality is that there won't be a PPC PowerBook G5. You could always enter your design for the Intel PowerBook.

I like the look of it.


I think a burlwood (real- not plastic) powerbook would be cool. Obviously not the whole laptop but it would be cool- very luxery car like.
