With the events that the Apple logo at the back doesn't glow anymore with the rMB, do you think Apple will also sell a laptop that is one full glowing Apple logo?

I know it's not April Fools yet, but hear me out on this one.
If you shine with a flashlight through the current Apple logo, even with brightness at minimum (i.e. turning the backlight off), you can still read text and images that are in the center of the screen, which is kinda cool.
Direct sunlight also works quite well.

I always liked this feature, and while the new rMB would break my workflow, do you think Apple will release a full backlighted semitransparent plastic back? It would really aid in my workflow so I don't always need to drag windows around to get them in front of the logo in the center.

Thank you for reading.

This is a strange way to talk about the Apple logo.

I will miss it too.

I think all Apple laptops will do away with it eventually.

Reminds of the thread this guy complains he can see the iPhone light leak when he uses his night vision goggle.
 
I have a MBA and really never paid any attention to the Apple glow. The fact that the MB doesn't glow isn't a deal breaker.
