Unreal MacBook Mini is Just That: Unreal

Everybody say: “Ohhhhh.”

It’s tiny. It runs Leopard 10.5.2. 80GB. 1GB. 1.6GHz Atom. Niiiiice.

This little MacBook Mini is just what many, many people have been hoping for (myself included).

Shame it’s not real.

In fact it’s an MSI Wind hacked to run OS X, and given the additional flourish of a realistic backlit Apple logo in the lid. It was created by user Spanky over at the German MSI Wind web forum (translation to English).

In recent weeks I’ve begun to see the appeal of a MacBook Air - the lightweight feel combined with a full size keyboard is certainly an attractive option. But for the time being, it’s just too expensive. Until prices come down (which I’m certain they will), hackbooks like this will continue to get me drooling.
