See the MacBook Earth, Water and Fire!

dvice.com — Leaked photos of the new MacBooks! Ever wanted your computer to be recyclable, blazing fast (literally), or poured out of a bottle? If you answered "yes" to any of those, there's now a MacBook for you.

  • Garipov, on 01/31/2008, -21/+16Breathe macbook air, drink macbook water, be warmed by macbook fire and walk on macbook earth (grass). Live macbook life.
    • bitcloud, on 01/31/2008, -1/+7the ah.. power is yours?
    • ronaldmonster, on 01/31/2008, -7/+4I don't see why he's getting dugg down, he's being creative.
      • Spuy767, on 01/31/2008, -3/+3Perhaps because this is one of the least front-page-worthy articles I've seen on here in a while. It's not even mildly humorous.
    • ziptnf, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1There's a pool of butter around you...
    • bjornski, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1Where's the Indian kid with the "Macbook Spirit"?

      CALLING CAPTAIN PLANET!!!
      • bjornski, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1Digg that down, I didn't watch the show, I didn't know it was "power of Heart"

        hated that show
  • newbill123, on 01/31/2008, -3/+41The pics are pretty funny but I wonder why a company like Apple hasn't already named their computer lines after the classical elements rather than price points of their target markets. It may not make sense for Apple, but heck, it'd be a good way to differentiate traits of hardware or even Linux distributions:
    Air -- Extremely small / lightweight
    Earth -- Baseline / solid
    Fire -- Blazing fast
    Ice -- Innovative / may freeze
    Aether -- Network / Server products
    • SierraAlpha, on 01/31/2008, -1/+3I have a feeling they'd think of something else for ice... perhaps it could be for portable devices. And yes I do have a sense of humour and I found it funny but I just wanted to throw in my 2 cents.
    • skippy562, on 01/31/2008, -0/+4thunder-gives you the shocker. || |
      • bjornski, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2Steve does that with every Macbook Air anyway
    • jrbrewin, on 01/31/2008, -3/+10sorry, but this is just the lamest thing i've seen in a long time. it's not funny. a good naming convention, but a stupid digg, and terible photoshopping.
    • fremeer, on 01/31/2008, -1/+10earth=base, not good at anything, not bad at anything
      fire=show offy, blazingly fast but expensive
      wind/air=thin
      water=small and easy to carry around(think eeepc)
      heart=useless

      when u combine them together you get

      Captain Macintosh!
      • SierraAlpha, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2Heart? Sounds like a "cutting-edge" processor.
    • chingy1788, on 01/31/2008, -0/+4so basically
      Earth = Macbook
      Fire = MBP
      Air = well Air
      Water for an EeePC equivalent
    • FoxOrian, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Naming a networking/server computer line "Aether" is actually very interesting to me. Gives a nice level of depth. I'd like to see them do it.
    • altrego99, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Fire = Blazing fast??
      Not when you add Fox to it... at least not till version 3.
  • fartbuttes, on 01/31/2008, -28/+9the NEW MacBook Poopy: *picture of a normal macbook*
    • fartbuttes, on 01/31/2008, -17/+5haha i see what you did there
      • simplenation, on 01/31/2008, -5/+2i don't
      • netdroid9, on 01/31/2008, -1/+13I see what you did there, and you should be ashamed. No calling 'i see what you did there' on your own comments, especially if you have a recognizable avatar.
    • motiontomove, on 01/31/2008, -3/+8Grow up.
    • jj101, on 01/31/2008, -1/+9Poopy comments from fartbuttes. Thinking outside the sandbox there kid?
    • Myonosken, on 01/31/2008, -1/+4Who the ***** says "poopie"?
  • Hess10, on 01/31/2008, -5/+5I wouldn't pick up after my dog if it decided to stop for a moment and have its way with that laptop.
  • xenon221, on 01/31/2008, -2/+12I'd rather have the MacBook Earth than the MacBook Air, even if I had to water / fertilize it.
  • FujiwaraTofu, on 01/31/2008, -11/+4Front page with only 34 diggs?

    Except for the MacBook Earth, the others could have been done wayy better.
  • BMNB1tches, on 01/31/2008, -3/+84EARTH!
    FIRE!
    WIND!
    WATER!
    HEART!
    Goooo Planet!
    By your powers combined, I AM CAPTAIN PLANET!
    • Qtip42, on 01/31/2008, -0/+8First thing I looked for here was a captain planet joke.......Now what does a macbook heart look like?
    • ocauTMM, on 01/31/2008, -4/+4Thing is, only faggots would buy the Heartbook, so you're going to have to make friends with 1 faggot and 3 really hip cool people so you can combine your lappys to make a Planetbook pro.
      • jrbrewin, on 01/31/2008, -1/+6so, most of the people that would normally buy a macbook then. ;)
    • elbonito665, on 01/31/2008, -0/+5Captain Apple Notebook Set
      Starting at $8995

      Includes MacBook Earth, Fire, Air, Water and Heart.
    • leaflord, on 01/31/2008, -0/+0Dang somebody beat me to it.
      Wonder what's the speciality of MacBook Heart... Community-love? Maybe it's full of links to sites like orkut or myspace :-s
    • Tanktunker, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Captain Planet!
      He's our hero!
      Gonna use violence to solve the world's problems!
  • cmost, on 01/31/2008, -12/+5How stupid!
  • LogitechG15, on 01/31/2008, -1/+18My lap is always on fire when I use my Macbook.
    • clyde2801, on 01/31/2008, -6/+5I suppose it's nature's way of saying, "You! Out of the gene pool!"
      • BryanJK, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2my dell laptop also reaches an astonishing 500 degrees
      • BryanJK, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1that's weird, i didn't make this comment to clyde >:(
    • ocauTMM, on 01/31/2008, -0/+7You should tone down on the porn browsing
    • RustyJ, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2I hear herpes is a bitch...
  • DarQraven, on 01/31/2008, -5/+0Hell, I want the Macbook Captain Planet. Complete with very short red top and speedo. Oh, and the power to save the environment of course. THE POWER IS YOURS!!!!
  • Velnich, on 01/31/2008, -4/+4What, no useless MacBook Heart?

    (yes I know BMNB1tches touched on the idea already)
    • PDubNYC, on 01/31/2008, -1/+0But you didn't let that little fact stop you, did you? Here's to you, Mr "I finally-came up-with-something-mildly-funny, was-beaten-to-the-punch-but-gonna-say-it-anyway" Man! Your mom will be so proud. You should go upstairs and tell her

      And god was that site ever lame too
      • Velnich, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Here's to me indeed! Cheers ***** face, cheers!
  • Steinr, on 01/31/2008, -2/+5useless but fun....

    weird things make it to the front page these days, I think digg must have changed its algorithms.
  • Fiyerstorm, on 01/31/2008, -1/+7MacBook Pro = MacBook Fire
  • withoutamartyr, on 01/31/2008, -0/+4Good... good... now all I need is the MacBook heart, and I can summon Captain Apple to help fight Microsoft.
    • smackhero, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2"Linux!"
      "Apache!"
      "MySQL!"
      "Perl!" (or PHP)

      "Go FOSS!"

      "by your powers combined, I am Richard Stallman!"

      Captain Stallman, he's our hero
      gonna take proprietary software down to zero.

      he's our powers magnified
      and he's fighting on FOSS's side

      Captain Stallman, he's our hero
      gonna take proprietary software down to zero

      gonna help him put asunder
      browsers that disregard open web standards

      "you'll pay for this Captain Stallman!"

      we're FOSS developers
      you can be one too
      'cause open source development is the thing to do

      proprietary licensing is not the way
      hear what Captain Stallman has to say!

      "The Source is Yours!"
  • DonSlice, on 01/31/2008, -0/+3I won't buy until MacBook Heart gets recognition.
  • CookieTrain, on 01/31/2008, -8/+4Excuse me, but why is this macfanboy jerk off story on the frontpage?

    Buried!
  • doctordbx, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2No Macbook Weighted Companion Cube?
    • Jektal, on 01/31/2008, -0/+3Can you even play Portal in OSX?
      • overkilpro, on 01/31/2008, -0/+0with crossover portal works better than it would run if you used bootcamp
  • truspect0r, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1:¬p
  • magnus3994, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1macbook jankovic, when?
  • whalt, on 01/31/2008, -0/+3I'm waiting for the MacBookHumours line: MacBookSanguine, MacBookCholeric, MacBookPhlegmatic, and MacBookMelancholy.
  • ifknot, on 01/31/2008, -2/+2hmm new digg algo. tuned to mac-porn? borderline lame
  • frozenwookie, on 01/31/2008, -2/+10burried for being lame...
  • PurpleSfinx, on 01/31/2008, -1/+2Where the hell's the MacBook heart? We can't summon without heart!!!111
  • niko8778, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1pretty sure the macbook fire is the macbook pro,

    the screen wont shut all the way on mine from excessive heat O_O
  • jeremyduffy, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2What a neat marketing strategy! It's fun stuff like this that makes Apple so popular. Example:

    The best Apple Ad ever: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvpGACmQaoI
    • jeremyduffy, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Crap! Digg error didn't let me edit. What I meant to say is that Apple should use that as an idea and run with it.
  • PhillyMJS, on 01/31/2008, -0/+5I don't know about you guys, but I'm waiting for the MacBook Leeloo.
  • petemorley, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Dugg for "Streaming".
  • j2002, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Captain Planet He's Our Hero! - Where is the MacBook Heart - You know the pink one with the tassles?
  • daxsymbiont, on 01/31/2008, -3/+1digg should stop licking apple's ass like a little bitch and realize ratings r going down:

    http://www.google.com/trends?q=digg
  • shatteredmind, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1wrong topic! misleading description! -> get the frack out of here!
  • kmedlin, on 01/31/2008, -0/+2This is pretty funny.

    What I thought was hilarious though were the two guys who commented on the actual site that:
    - Didn't know about the band Earth, Wind & Fire...
    - Called them fake like people were confused when they saw the pictures...

    I wonder if this is that character from Family Guy who kept following Peter around calling him a "phony."
  • gumby013, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1I figured the MacBook Pump would be next.

    Pump up, Air out.
  • proseandpromise, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1The one time Dell wins out. They got to the flaming laptop before Mac did.
  • nealsoad, on 01/31/2008, -1/+1For each image they used:
    Earth - iBook
    Water - Macbook
    Fire - Macbook Pro
    nice...
    What I want to see is a new MacBook - EARTH WIND & FIRE! It's just like any other Macbook except for when you power it up you hear the song "Lets Groove Tonight" in place of the startup chime!

  • pinchduck, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1I see a product placement revenue stream for the Shakespeare Festival in Stratford, ON. "The Stratford Festival is pleased to Preset: The Tragedy of MacBook".
    The Weird Sisters can use these during their potion scene.
  • impliedparadox, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1I am gonna say fake. The fire thing would probably be a health hazard.
  • exedotbat, on 01/31/2008, -0/+0So when you combine these with the air, does it activate the 5th element?
  • RevToTheRedline, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Wow really? People really waste their time making up stuff like this? Sad.
  • deaftly, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1what idiot would even digg this up
  • praetorianpi, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Chi-Chi-Chi-ChiaMac!
  • freeboarder1402, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1lol, nice job using an iBook for the MB earth
  • ahpro, on 01/31/2008, -0/+1Anybody else think the earth one actually looks quite good and like one that could be made?
  • mihon00, on 01/31/2008, -0/+0That really made my day!! I understand ppl who desliked as ppl who didn`t know or didn`t like the macbook air. Since I am very interested on macbook air (and so read an saw much about it) I found this amazingly funny! =D
  • karlaredor, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1haha! Where's captain planet?
  • adityatawde, on 02/01/2008, -0/+0Its fake.
  • aryayush, on 02/01/2008, -0/+1Oh, this is just so freaking lame.
