Clamshell Sustainability Redesign

The clamshell iBook is the most durable notebook Apple has ever built. But we can do better - look at the Clamshell Sustainability Redesign project on Shrakner.net. It contains a lot of good ideas such as the ability to detach the screen from the rest of the computer or to use the bottom of the computer as a multimedia center. It's a pity that it is only a dummy.

Remember that the iBook is not designed for professional use, and as much as a typical TidBITS reader might want additional features and capabilities, many of us aren't the target audience. Apple is targeting the consumer market with the iBook, and the designers obviously thought long and hard about which features could be cut to save money while at the same time differentiating the iBook from the PowerBook G3.
