The screen?

It's Arrington's old macbook air screen.

I built the prototype. I was going to afford you a response to your first comment, but you have just been ranting. You can't even recognize the difference between a 13" Macbook Air screen and the 12" WXGA screen we used.

the guy above who talked about not disclosing components as a negotiating strategy with ODM's knows what he is talking about. He is also right in that there are a few people here in the valley who really know how to bend an ODM.

Nice work. Of course I can't tell the difference, because all that anyone's seen is a photo of your prototype. I think I made a fair assumption.

Thanks for weighing in with a comment though, and as I said before, please do prove me wrong!
