Why does it have to look like a Macbook?


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.
