What Would You Like To See From Apple

not an accessory but i'd like to see apple come out with a really cool looking laptop like the clamshell ibooks. Those were some great laptops, they were easy to work on, durable, and the handle was the best part, you could carry like 8 at a time.
OS-X made especially for PC machines 
..like ship OS-X as a standard OS on some HP or something
or better yet..make a brand new OS just for non-apple based hardware.

I like the way apple distributes its OS now, allows it to just work.
I would like to see a table mac made by apple not a 3rd party.
Or something that is an apple ultra mobile
I'll just say this now before the slew of other disgruntled Apple customers post here... FireWire on the MacBooks.
10" netbook computer. Something in the same vein as Dell's mini 9 and Asus' Eeepc 1000. 10" LCD, 1.8ghz Atom CPU w/ GMA950 GPU, 1gb RAM (up to 2gb), 8gb SSD with upgrade options for 16gb SSD, 32gb SSD, and 80gb HDD. And OSX, of course.
Also, the trackpad should be a big glass sheet like the new MacBooks, and be removable so you can dock your iPhone/iPod touch in its place to give you mobile data (with iPhone), extra storage space, an LCD touchpad (move various menus to the touchscreen, etc), access to your media files, and whatever else the pairing would allow.
Replace the mini* at a $599 price point, plus upgrade options.
*The mini needs to become a headless iMac. Offer the same specs as the base iMac without the monitor and with a full 5.25" optical drive for around $800-900.

Pro laptops made of durable plastic with matte screens and firewire. You'd think that would be a simple request.
Where to begin...
- A mid-range Mac Tower that is user upgradeable like the Mac Pro
- A tablet Mac or true Netbook
- iTunes to finally allow ripping of DVD's
- 32 and 64GB iPhone/iPod Touch Options
- If the Mac Tower is to hard to swallow, how about an iMac with a HDD we can swap out? Maybe add more than 1 HDD? And go beyond 4GB of RAM.
I want a Mac Mini that is skinnier than the current one, with an Intel Core 2 Quad, 16 GBs of RAM, a 2 TB Desktop Hard Drive, an ATI 4850 x2 card, Blu-Ray player and burner, and a built in refrigerator.
Adoption of that super fast battery charging tech, 3-4 hours for a full iPod charge? Ouch.
Better GPUs in all their systems.
More ram as standard.
New Mighty Mouse.
Backlit keyboard option for all their keyboards.
Pressure on Valve to get Steam for the Mac.
That's all I need.

Price drops (with these profits I'm sure they can afford to rob us a little less)
FireWire back on MacBooks
Netbooks
Better camera on the iPhone (even my old phone had 3.1 and a flash!)
