    Know, can anyone tells me what happens when you minimize the thickness of an all plastic laptop (as they'd have to do to mimic the thinness of a Macbook Air) but would not happen if metal were used (as in the Macbook Air).....Anyone?

    Cheapness != Value.

    plastic case with this dimension is doomed. Apple product design has more than just looks.

    @bigbaddaddy: bwahhh...
    my acer aspire one a110l has also plastic case, and is hacked/modded to the fullest (touch, ram, sdd, 300mbit wlan, bluetooth, esata)... this thing fell to the ground 100times, was disassambled 10times and goes with my dj-gigs all the time ...... just curious , whats so bad about plastic case? the iiview A2 would be great because i wouldn't need the external monitor nor my external esata-drive. just the netbook + scratchlive-box .....

    @tiki tuka brumey: That's fine on a 9in machine - the plastic is decently rigid at that scale. Take it up to 12in, and that thing is gonna twist.

    If I'm going to buy something with "aye-aye" in the title, I want it to at least include a peg-leg or a parrot or something...

    In your first sentence, it should be "..then...", not "...than". "Than" is only used when you compare two things; "then" is used to show sequence.

    Sorry to be a grammar nazi...this is a common mistake, though.

    Quite the sexy mimic artist....
    The more these clones pop up the more they make me want the real thing.

    I am so ready for a MacBook. Just waiting on BT 3.0 and USB 3.0

    It would by far be a much nicer looking hackintosh than the Mini.
