In an upmarket move, Fujitsu-Siemens just loosed this, their
AMILO Si 2636 laptop onto the cafe-posing elite. Besides sporting an interesting orb of a touchpad, it's configurable with a 2.2GHz T7500 Core 2 Duo processor, up to 4GB DDR2 memory, and 250GB of 5400rpm SATA disk. The new 13.3-inch, 1,280 x 800 (WXGA) laptop features Intel GMA X3100 graphics, HDMI-out, an integrated 1.3 megapixel webcam, 4-in-1 card reader, slot loading 8x dual-layer DVD burner, and battery capable of up to 5-hours. They even combine one of the 3x USB ports with eSATA for attaching a bit of high-performance external disk action. It weighs in at 2.3-kg (5-pounds) and 36.6 ~ 37.4-mm thick. We're still waiting for pricing and availability to be announced.

Sorry, but Engadget mistakes decorating for design again.
Also: first!
Macbook, I see?
No, this looks pretty good.
I guess that touchpad switches the question to "Will it play Quake?"
You mean Marathon.
A round touchpad seems like a bad idea. It might be hard to get to the corners of the screen without lifting your finger.
If you rest the palms of you hands in one spot, your fingers natural moment is in more of a circular pattern. Might be easier to use this one.
Great looking laptop more original looking design then many doesn't copy the macbook apple jock rider above(bullitt).
