Yeah, you already memtioned it, I just didn't know if it was the one you got. It does look pretty good, and I can kinda see where the PowerBook G4 comparison comes from. The bottom half looks like the 12" model, with the keyboard spanning the whole length.
It looks pretty nice, I have to say! And being 3:2 is always a plus.

i see what you mean, it's more the experience of using a 3:2 screen of that size with a light metallic body

if you're familiar with panasonic's line-up i think my comparison makes more sense. they're known for their robust designs, circular trackpads with ipod-like scrolling, and for having a lot of ports (including VGA, yes this even has a VGA port)

i do feel the laptop is a bit too light for my tastes, i think this is an issue with most modern laptops today unless they're `gamer laptops' (and then in that case the aesthetic doesn't appeal to me so much..). oh well, i'm sure i'll be nice to carry it

the keyboard is really nice and full-sized with good travel distance and springiness

Apparently (click) Microsoft is trying to display ads in explorer now. :\ I'm perpetually surprised by the product managers and designers making these choices.

I'm not at all. This isn't even the first time -- that was Windows 98 FE. And then there's the lock screen, which was meant to be for ads, like the Kindle Fire. It's why I prefer 95 and NT over 98 -- and FOSS over either. Still need to try FreeBSD...

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
