The main difference being the lack of spaces after the periods. Apple would never do crap that. This is almost exactly the same thing, just with that fixed.

Furthermore, I don't think Apple can try to win Windows users by saying Front Row and iLife. This doesn't mean anything to them. We'll see, but I'm calling serious fake on this one.]]>May 14th 2006 1:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/May 14th 2006 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/

You clicking the add pays for Engadget staff's Mercedes, home entertainment systems, condos and other excesses that would be repossessed if you didn't click. It's click fraud made nicer.

Does anyone here think Apple will actually release a black iBook? I say no way, for two reasons:

1. Think about the scratches on the iPod Nano
2. It would look just like every other crappy notebook out there.

Never going to happen.]]>May 14th 2006 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/May 14th 2006 4:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/May 14th 2006 5:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/

You're exaggerating. I have a black Nano which I take to the gym. It dangles around my neck on lanyard headphones, bashes against weights, and has my sweaty fingers on it every 30 mins when I change albums/podcasts.

After 6 months and only being occasionally wiped on a t-shirt, it still looks excellent. You'd have to really stare at it closely to see the marks.

For a black MacBook: if it's a dull matt plastic then I agree that would be boring and I wouldn't be getting one. But if it is a glossy transparent skinned finish, then...

Oh momma, I'm buying this baby!]]>May 14th 2006 8:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/
I have to disagree with #36 (Anon. Coward) about Apple not using different colors. I think Macrumors and AppleInsider have both said that they expect at least black and white initially, and perhaps other colors in the future. Also, I don't see why scratches on the nano would prevent Apple from releasing a black notebook?? The white nano gets just as scratched. Also, it seems silly to me that Apple would refuse to make a black notebook just because other PC manufacturers use black cases. Color doesn't have nearly as much to do with the aesthetics as other factors that set noteboook models apart from one another.]]>May 14th 2006 8:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/May 14th 2006 11:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/May 15th 2006 1:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/http://www.engadget.com/2006/05/14/supposed-macbook-ad-accidentally-posted-to-apple-site/
