Got a Mac?

The kids at the Missouri School of Journalism sure as hell do. Something like 80% of the students in this photo apparently. Interesting how certain segments of the population are so Mac oriented despite it’s relatively small market share compared to Windows.—Sean Fallon

Macworld: Axiotron Inc. releases ModBook, the first Mac OS X tablet computer

Filed under: Hardware

axiotron modbook tablet computer

Axiotron has released the first ever tablet computer that runs Mac OSX (you know, the OS that the iPhone has on it). It was rumored that a Mac tablet would be unveiled, and that it wouldn’t be Apple that did it; these rumors have turned out to be true. Here is some interesting information that the press release contains:

The Axiotron ModBook is an after-market hardware modification solution of the Apple MacBook notebook computer, adding true pen input, a new 13.3″ wide screen LCD and an optional Global Positioning System in a tough, satin chrome plated magnesium top shell, while keeping all the powerful features of the MacBook base system.

That means that you buying a ModBook isn’t really buying a completely new product. The ModBook is precisely what its name implies, a modification of the MacBook that turns it into a tablet computer. Pricing of the ModBook is such that suggested retail prices begin at $2,279.
