LOLz!
Wtf?! Is this a joke?!?! Price, 45 minutes for an email, scrolling for each letter, ridiculous looking, ‘dicking around’, wtf?! This cannot be for real.
Gotta be a gag. Love it.
me clicky the wheel ha ha lol faceplant durr leave house looks like dvd
hhaha hilarious. big ups the onion.
If they ship by E3, I will be using this for my liveblogging of the 3 major press conferences.
the onion makes my day almost every day.
Oh man… i can’t pause the video to read those “predictive” sentences. I can see a bunch of sentences about aardvarks and abortion. The background stuff is sometimes the best part of Onion Video.
LMAO!!! I love the lucky guy who spent 45 min typing an email!
tom=not the sharpest bulb in the box of rocks.
(BTW Onion is a satire media source.)
Wow. That was possibly the best made skit ever. Awesome job!
Macbook Wheel? What is this? Is Apple trying to get themselves less of the market than they have now? God, what a stupid idea!
Nobody wants to spend no 00:45:00 writing one single email missive, no matter how trivial!
A Regular keyboard and the the current technology makes things go so much faster than that!
This can’t be real….
And I betcha any money it ISN’T…
Aw come on Jonathan, don’t knock it until you at least used one in person. I would suggest a visit to your local Apple store to try it out.
I got word on another model Apple too. Check out the Mactini.
macbook air, ok.. macbook wheel. LOL… macbook stick , fook YEAH
I was actually fooled…for 20 minutes. Good work to whoever made this!
I’ve got screencaps of the Predictive Sentence technology…
It’s a joke folks! Onion -peel back the layers.
Folks are sooo gullible.
That would take a lot of getting used to. o.o
everything is just a few hundred clicks away
I seriously think that the macbook wheel is an inevitable evolution of mac products and would be a serious idea if your were completely computer illiterate. I mean it’s a giant ipod!!
Too bad this were a parody because i think it would be absolutely hilarious to watch someone really wheel themselves an email and have it take an hour! It could be reprogrammed to be way more efficient as well if it were REAL. Apple could also incorporate a touch type keyboard and a wheel on the keyboard like where the touch pad would be and you would have actually something usable. If apple wants to rule the computing world, make it great and inexpensive and people will want it.
heya… great laptop.. i am very very eager to use this laptop.. hope this will rock !
well,it’s just a comedy and a fake edited video.
there’s no such thing as macbook wheel.
did you realize that?
I’m an avid fan of apple and had been using their products for 15 years….
But I think that is going way too far..
What’s the premise for the innovation? ..that having 10 fingers and being able to use them is some kind of a handicap? uhh
