Why does it have to look like a Macbook?
5 comments

MacBooks are the most basic form of a laptop. If you remove huge screen bezels, get rid of the cheap plastic case, unnecessary buttons, don’t add a bunch of stickers and logos everywhere, every laptop would look like a MacBook.
Because that's what factories are producing
other than being made out of metal and generally laptop-shaped this doesn't look anything like a macbook
Because as much as some of us want unique computers, they just don’t sell as well as MacBook clones.
Unfortunately.. I miss the days where manufacturers were more willing to be bold.
Bring back the G3 color clamshells!
I'd be okay with this! The laptop market has become a bit too homogeneous.
