			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all, I should say, the only source I have is <a title="Apple Wheel (MacWorld 2009)" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU9o0nKiOJE" target="_blank">this youtube video</a>.</p>
<p>Apple wheel is a &#8220;revolutionary&#8221; laptop with no keyboard,  just a giant scroll wheel :| I kid you not, that&#8217;s what it says :-/</p>
<p>The guy in that video apparently took 45 minutes to type a mail (with a million mistakes) and he still likes the product&#8230; jeez. I like write a few hundred lines of code in that time :|</p>
<p>Me and <a title="SK's Blog" href="http://sk.isnewb.com" target="_blank">SK</a> call this Apple&#8217;s Reality Distortion Field™. This is single handedly the shittiest technological innovation I have seen in my time on this planet. I&#8217;m sure there might be something equally (or may be more) stupid in the past but this certainly is the stupidest thing I have heard of in the mainstream.</p>
<p>It looks seriously slim. I think it was a 12 odd inch form factor which is cool. Its nice to see Apple put stuff in such compact spaces but the idea of removing a key board all together, to me at least, is JUST WRONG! Typing on that machine would be next to impossible. Using it would be really cumbersome too. You want the &#8220;next generation&#8221; of Hardware User Interfaces? Go Touch Screen. Go take a page from Microsoft&#8217;s book (Windows 7, to be precise).</p>
<p>The worst part is that Apple Fanboys are loving it :-/ I admit, I am a slight Microsoft Fanboy. I do like their work but this does not, in any way, mean that if they pull of something as stupid as this, I wouldn&#8217;t slap them to oblivion.</p>
<p>Please continue doing what you do best. Keep making products like the <a title="MacWorld 2009 - MacBook Pro 17 inch" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qPB1HWKHrU" target="_blank">new MacBook Pro 17</a>, the <a title="MacBook Air - A guided Tour" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7askBmF4_c" target="_blank">MacBook Air</a> and the <a title="iPod Classic" href="http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/" target="_blank">iPod Classic</a>/<a title="iPod Touch" href="http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/" target="_blank">iPod Touch</a>/<a title="iPhone" href="http://www.apple.com/iphone/" target="_blank">iPhone</a>. Thanks! :)</p>
<p>Bad Apple! :(</p>
