i really don't know how you can say that. (I am not being nasty here - or not trying anyway)...

Specs:
1.6GHz (SP7500) or 1.8GHz (SP7700), with 4MB L2 Cache and 800MHz FSB

- consumes 20w of power
- has "instant on" booting into linux, for immediate access to skype and other instantly wantable thingies
- has that amazing ethernet integrated-cum-wireless router-power slab
- .74 inches thin.
What would you be comparing it against ??

I can hardly contain myself. Never been this excited about an inanimate object, well not since that condom split on me.]]>Jun 25th 2008 4:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 4:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 5:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 7:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 4:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 4:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/
You obviously don't watch Formula 1.

There you can see the odd laptop around doing things like ordering pizza for the guys, or making small adjustments to the temp sensors in the control system.

Apple champions the minimalistic & smooth-edged (even if the smooth edges are sharp enough to cut through cake) theme while Voodoo takes the bolder & striking approach. That is not to say that the two do not have similar characteristics- Voodoo does not exactly miss out completely on the minimalism idea and Apple's adherence to understated design demonstrates boldness in its own right.

I, and anyone familiar with the company, do not predict Apple offering ferrari-themed products or the like and Voodoo will do well to continue on its trend of bolder, brighter products.

Apple's venture to boldness may come later this year when they possibly may release a... drumroll... (RED) iPhone. Other than that, call me a commie, but I would rather go with the less individualistic approach and have a slim, sexy (SSD) Air that matches others than a laptop that I'm afraid may leave me in a cloud of exhaust chasing after some pretty young Porsche-themed netbook. ]]>Jun 25th 2008 8:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/
There was a time when apple used to offer more colored products than anybody.

oh please. Voodoo isn't that far ahead in terms of industrial design comparing to what Apple has done. The design of the Envy 133 actually follows closely with that of the MacBook/Macbook Pro. Yes, the material is different and the coloring is different, but it's got the same clean lines, identical hinge, the same large trackpad found on the MacBook Air. Remember, the MacBook Pro design stems from the aluminum PowerBook G4, which was released 5 years ago. The design is so perfect, that it's still in used today and adopted by various PC manufacturers to achieve that perfect notebook computer look. remember what laptop computers looked like back in 2003? nothing close to what Apple had achieved. The fact that PC manufacturers are finally catching up to Apple industrial design after 5 years says alot about how far ahead Apple really was compared to everybody else.]]>Jun 25th 2008 8:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 5:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/:)]]>Jun 25th 2008 8:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 8:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/Jun 25th 2008 8:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/25/customized-voodoo-envy-133-a-sin-worthy-of-death/
