Are you kidding me? That will take FOREVER to type. When he showed it, it took him like five minutes to type "T". That's awful, I don't know how they can show that with pride. That's just sick. And for $2,600. Do you know how epic of a PC I could get with that kind of money?

If any macdouche accepts this and thinks it's innovative and useful, you SERIOUSLY need help. That means you're obsessed with Macs.

Also, I found it funny how casually she said dicking around.

no kidding. i would never waste money on that.
^^^I typed that in a minute with a PC keyboard
^^^Using a mackbook wheel (NEVER) that would probably take me like 5 minutes

Also, the 1 dude took 45 minutes to type an e-mail to his friend. wow. AND the battery it uses has ONLY 20 MINUTES on it until it needs to be recharged.

It's not a real product. For those of you who aren't familiar, the Onion is a parody newspaper and the video is a parody too.

No company would ever make a laptop with 20 minutes of battery life or a next generation model with no screen or hard drive.

Well inductive reasoning says you're not very observant.

It also says you're dumb lolz

BTW the best thing that the onion has ever done is the Joah Cressbeckler bit.

Hahaha, I love all the predictive sentences they came up with.

The aardvark asked for an aardvark.
The aardvark asked for a dagger.
The absinthe arrived by airmail.
The abortion went well."

Ah, I didn't see the link before I clicked. I know what the onion is.

I thought it was serious because it's the kind of thing I can see Apple trying out.

EDIT: Also, Matt, it is unnecessary to be a douchebag about it. Quite obnoxious, to tell you the truth. I simply didn't actually read the link before I clicked it. An easy mistake to make by anyone.

The funny thing is that if they came up with a logical typing system this is almost a plausible Apple product...
