I need a thin Book. With a reasonable graphic card (no need for a gaming stuff: I have my iMac for that). And a laaarge HD. And HD-DVD or BlueRay reader.
My current machine is an iMac Core 2 Duo 2.16 GHz 24" and a MacBook Pro 13" with MacOS X 10.6. My oldest Apple was born in 1977.

I like the all-aluminum ones better, but I suppose they want to switch up the design a bit. It seems like the non-blacks will also be available.Power to Burn.

A 10-12" widescreen MacBook Thin without optical drive that'd _actually_ be light for a change (all Apple's notebooks are too heavy, even the 12" PB and iBook was) would be a Steve-send for me. Sadly, I simply don't think Apple will do that. They want to give us something that is _almost_ a subnotebook that innovatively still contains an optical drive or something like that, I fear.

So you're still waiting for a subnotebook from Apple?
A 14" iBook was "heavy". Not a 12" iBook!

If they do release a sub-notebook that has no optical drive, then I for one will be impressed. In this day and age, a thinner notebook, with a USB optical drive tucked safely away in your bag, would be a far more sensible option all around for most users.
