    I'm not too sure what to make of this...

    http://www.theonion.com/content/video/apple_introduces_revolutionary

    What the hell?!, It's really REALLY expensive, even for an Apple Mac.

    Theres noway on earth you will be able to type quickly/effectively with this thing!!!

    Why do they keep releasing pointless things like this and the MacBook Air???

    Jesus :confused:

    Totally rubbish idea.

    For multimedia purpose, it is fine. But for typing, who in the hell want to use that. :confused:

    everything is just a few hundred clicks away, unbreakable unless dropped or smashed.

    I never said that I thought it was true, Anything from The Onion is a Hoax obviously.

    I posted the thread to see how many people would actually take it as real, hence the poll names.
