You are correct.

I agree. Also, if you look at the last bottom two attatched pictures in the first post, the placement of the word 'MacBook' switches from slightly to the left to slightly to the right.

In the left bottom image, when comparing 'MacBook' to the circle and square above, it looks as if it is a little more to the right. When in the right bottom picture, when comparing it to the same spots as well as the rest of the frame, it looks like it moved a little more to the left. Both aren't even.

I'd draw lines, too, but I'm lazy. :eek:
 
You are correct.

Just add an "Air" and it becomes centered.
 
Maybe it's just me, but does anyone think they might drop the "MacBook" Line for an expanded MacBook Pro line with a 13.3" option and then something new as the entry level notebook?

Currently the low end MBP and high end MB use the same 2.4GHz T8300 Processor. Why not merge the MB/MBP for a unified aluminum casing as your everything laptop (not your companion like the MBA) and come out with something new in the $1000-1100 range. It just does not seem like Apple to have a line of 3 laptops targeted at 3 different demographics that all look very similar. To a degree, it is a status thing to have a MBP vs a MB. Many of us would like to have a MBP (power wise) but in a smaller case. I just dont see Apple sending out their entry level notebook in the same casing as their high end notebook.

With all this 'glass trackpad' talk, that just does not seem to run consistent with an aluminum casing. I think that would look really awkward. Ive got my money on an updated line of MBP's in a 13, 15, and 17 screen sizes and something new for the MB, maybe with this glass trackpad and new chipset apple has been talking about.


I have to agree, however I think they will drop the PRO name and offer macbooks of different screen sizes and raw power. I believe they will have 3 lines, macbook air, macbook, and macbook venus (tablet).

I doubt that the names will change. MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and MacBook will stick.
 
Here's the problem

Here's a link to the website where the pictures are coming from according to engadget:

http://www.appleowner.com

On the main page, they have images flashing and one of them is the NEW MacBook. What is that all about?!? Does anyone know if the site is legit? It doesn't look too legit to me. For example, the telephone number they list isn't even legit.
 
Whys that? Apple said they are ditching ALL plastic by the end of 2008 to make room for aluminum and glass. Much more eco friendly AKA "Green"

Look at the iMac. The 2007 revision is the best looking one they ever made. Got rid of the plastic white. Times are changing. Apple is to. (How many of you were complaning when apple ditched the rainbow logo? :rolleyes: ) I just dont understand why people arte getting so worked up over a logo that they dont know if its off centered or what or that its no longer in plastic. I'm sure apple wants to create consistency here not have a ton of different models with different cases and looks. Cuts down on production costs and they need to make one certain case. The Macbook air and the macbook are prety much the same, they fit in to the everyday user category. Hence will share a imler case. The pro may see something a bit diferent because its aimed at pro users. I wouldnt be surprised if the pro will look a bit like a mobile imac.

I have never been a fan of aluminum/titanium/whatever metal computers. I just think they don't look good.

I'm still complaining about that.
 
This is not the top cover of the MBA. On the MBA cover, "MacBook Air" is in black font. In these pics, "MacBook" is in grey.

There will always be a pro and a consumer line. They will not merge them.
 
To everyone saying the MacBook lettering is off-center: I understand your concern, but it's really hard to draw (literally) conclusions because of perspective. The screen isn't placed flat-out in front of you.
 
Hey Goofballs...

What's the specs? Nuts to buy on looks alone. Wind up with a leggy brunette super model only to discover herpes down under and the remnants where a man used to be.

"Vanishing point" in photoshop solves that... and then using the measurement tool in vanishing point, even gives you the angle in degrees :)

So, yes, it IS centered! :p
