Long gone could be the glossy white, clean-looking finish to our MacBooks — in coming could be a new look – sleek and trendier, very modern, and eco-friendly, the new look is rumored to be made with anodized aluminum and stainless steel, much like the MacBook sibling, the MacBook Pro. This change in design would definitely add symmetry to the Apple product line.
But that’s not all — rumored is also a change in making all MacBooks thinner, which I am assuming will also make them lighter!
It is rumored that this new design will make it out into the market soon, as Apple’s average design cycle is every 18-24 months (for the MacBook and the MacBook Pro.) The last major redesign was in 2006.
Now of course this is all undisclosed information from a Taiwanese worker, on a Taiwanese Apple forum — at a undisclosed Taiwanese case company, who has received the order for an Aluminum casing for the MacBook. Kind of sounds like, “I heard this from my cousin’s friend’s sister who knows the guy that is friends with the girl who works there…” 🙂
I definitely can see Apple heading this way with their MacBooks and I look forward to the new design Apple will put out into the market, but to be honest I would miss the glossy white finish (as it matches the decor in my house!)
