Okay, if that was machined from a single bloack of Aluminum it would have been approximately 3'X3'x6' or 54 cu ft of Aluminum. If they left 5% of that block that means that 51.5 cu ft of waste (approximately). I like the recyclability factor, but maybe something that is artisitic and efficient is in order?
They waste a LOT less with the design of the MBP's. And for the record, yes, I know the waste is recyclable. Still that's a LOT of wasted energy.
