SmackBook is almost a year old, very cool, it came out right after they had added motion sensors to there Powerbook line. now Smackbook has been integrated into "VirtueDesktop" software i had a thread on that months ago, u can check it out... they have also added something cooler than changing desktop by smaking, which is changing desktop by using the ambient light sensors... check it out

yes it is, they mentioned that about a couple of weeks ago... one reason was it would be a pointless compatition against SPACES that will be included in Leopard

SPACES is much more cooler and advanced and well designed and written than the VirtueDesktop.... u can do things with spaces that u cant do with VirtueDesktop like display all the different desktop screens at te same time and drag the openned software between the diferent desktops by just simply draging... buuuuuuuuuuuuttt we dont know if Apple is going to add the smakbook feature into it, or even the lightsensor trick... for all we know, it could be part of the top secret features of Leopard, or it might not... because if u think about it, smaking ur computer might wear it down in time... so i dont think Apple would advice people to smack there screen every couple of minutes and then after a month go down to an Apple store and say... aaaaaa excuse me Sir... but my i think there is somethin worng with my screen :P can u fix it under the warenty... what seems to be the problem, and how did it happen... well i was smacking my computer really hard cause i was pissed about something that is not computer or Apple related, but i was pissed so i smacked my macbook so hard that the screen started squeeking and it crakced hehehehe :P j/k so ii dont think Apple will add that feature... but whooooooo knows?????? anything is posible with Apple
