MacBook Wheel Announced- The Onion
|
"The most intuitive product ever designed." HAHA now that's funny. "What could be simpler than one big button?!"
"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." :D Gotta love the onion. Crazy stuff. |
alright i think this is absolutly ridiculous, i mean how hard would it be for example for me to type this out if i had to scroll to each individual letter, it would take me absolutly forever, it would be just as slow as the search function on an ordinary ipod, i love apple products but i think in this case they have gone a bit too far and the cost has been function..

i agree with Aydinz
45 minutes on an email is not something i am willing to do.. and 20 minutes on batteries.. wow i really think that we've taken a step backward, great idea, but could be a lot improved, maybe a little foldable keyboard in a pocket of the mac :p
^_^^_^ haha hillarious after i realized that it was fake.. i actually believed it :) and then spent a long time browsing onion news. |
oh right, its fake? well they got me :S and yeah i think the idea of a little keyboard would be great or another thing they could do is have it connect to an iphone or ipod touch wirelessly so it could use the keyboard on that?
|
Heh, I needed some satire to warm me up on this extremely cold morning. Funny and extremely well done. :D
|
Fake :D But, who knows, maybe apple is watching this and they actually do make it :D
|
I especially enjoyed the part about the battery and how you can see it count down. I had a MacBook that would do that near the end of its batteries life.

Hey guys - this is RETRO computing! Let's get back to the roots:

These wheel-drived phones live again in the new Macbook Wheel, only that you have to use it for a hundred functions. Very easy. I bet this Macbook has special USB kexts that every other input device is disabled - otherwise it wouldn't be unique anymore.
Oh boy, If I'd imagine this thing... For a keyboard geek like me nothing. And - try to use it in winter - with fingers frozen directly on the aluminum case... ;-) |
Ugly!!!!!!

"It couldn`t be more simple. Everything is just few hundred clicks away..." - i love it :D
|
I love The Onion, they are great, everything seemed so real and I believed it when I first watched it a few weeks ago!
