<Apple May Shave Weight of Future MacBooks with Carbon Fiber Composites>

Next step may be enclosing helium filled bags...

Just don't let go of that balloon... erm... computer

BTW... I didn't get anything from that explanation lol.
All I understand is that it will be light and pretty much the same to use as the aluminium blocks now.

Carbon fiber is a little more difficult to work with but it is not only lighter but stronger than aluminum. Some of the aluminum boxes have been easily bent or dented. Plus, the fiber procedure makes colors easy, its very similar to fiber glass construction/make up; virtually any design, color, finish desired. Maybe one with racing stripes?
