Looks like OWC has teamed up with another company to produce tablet Macs as a third party product.

I've not been too impressed by Tablet PC's but maybe the OS X could be a little better at doing this than XP!

Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

i really wouldn't trust buying a ModBook from these people
i'd wait for Apple to come out with something
especially something like the current TabletPC's where you can use it as a tablet AND a laptop and not just a tablet.

Do these people buy macs and gut them or do they just assemble these machines from scratch?

Looks like a neat hack; maybe Steve Jobs can buy them!
