Apple announces MacBook Wheel

[DangerousDaze]

Onion News Network are reporting (http://www.theonion.com/content/video/apple_introduces_revolutionary) on Apple's latest technological marvel, the keyboardless MacBook Wheel!

Brian Gilman, senior product innovator at Apple had this to say about the new product:
At Apple our philospophy is to create products that are simple to use, and nothing's more simple than a single giant button.

It's not all good news though. ONN highlighted a potential flaw for business users:
It remains to be seen if the Wheel will catch on in the business world where people use computers for actual work and not just dicking around.

What do you think? Will it catch on? It's got an Apple logo on it and it comes in a fantastic looking cardboard box, so how can it fail?

"I'll buy almost anything if it's shiny and made by apple"

:D

Oh... I see what you did there. Now this is a nice feature:

"Nearly indestructible unless it's dropped or hit!"

[Wilkz07]

I'll get a mac when it can also make me a cup of coffee.

[Telefrog]

No. Just like the Air, which was a marketing wonder, these products are NOT meant for regular business users.

Or, really anyone not completely enamored of the Apple logo.

I really hope not.

I really hope not.

Me too. I mean, a single giant button? :)

[Bingley Joe]

Me too. I mean, a single giant button? :)

Of course it will work! How many buttons do you think telegraph operators needed?? That's right: ONE.

This latest coup from Apple heralds a return to simpler times, and I for one welcome that. Plus the packaging experience will be unparalleled.

Steve Jobs is a farging visionary genius.

Isn't that what all the smartass comments were about? ;)

[Sl1pstream]

Your smartass comment wasn't smartass enough. :p

The sad thing is, I bet $10 that Jeffbax thought it was a great idea and really showed off Apple's innovation.

[Blue]

I'd buy it. I'd also purchase an Onion.

[JayVe]

This was brilliant. Thanks for sharing! :D

[Nura]

Yeah, and some bacon, and some potatos.. and the fry the onion with the bacon on a pan, and make mashed potatos and the eat it all together. I'm hungry now.

I'd bet more than $10!
