That's so completely fake.
If the do release a netbook, it would NOT look like that.
Also, I'm no photo expert but something funky is going on with the shadows. The left side and right side of the notebook have shadows going in different directions, as well as the front. Also the ports are miniature.
Apple will most likely release an innovative 10'' tablet device to compete in the mobile computing area instead of just copying what everyone else is doing.

How it was made.
Quite simply 2 sheets of white plastic Vac formed, with some pretty stickers attached.
Apple prototypes have much higher standards.
Still nice work guy's, I love a bit of bait in the rumor mill. Can't wait for the real thing, and god help me IF it looks like that!

This thing is so obviously fake. Everyone picks things apart and spouts the word "Photoshop" all the time, but go to Gizmodo, its made of wood! some student made it. great front page news
HAHAHA! Nice! It's true! It IS a wooden crafted model with pencil they even have other pics of it from all angles and open!
Nice job whoever made it. For anyone who believed it as a new netbook though I am sorry because this thing is literally a scaled down iBook. The vents are even in the same exact spots and any iBook owner could have spotted that
And this is why I didn't want to voice an opinion. That is a very impressive art project. I like it a lot.
It's not a knock off or a fake
Looks like the prop used in this photo shoot.

Someone could have easily (obviously) pshopped an apple logo on it.

Yeah, but how well would that disperse heat? I have my doubts that this is a better material than aluminum.
Are you kidding me?
Have we not learned by now... if it doesn't FEEL right it ain't right. I could drone on @ specific aesthetic tell-tales, but we macheads have got to adopt a new M.O. when analyzing leaks... if it doesn't inspire, its not apple... and this is the least inspiring fraud i've seen in a very long time.
