Sure would be cool if they sold a product that could be used as a laptop or a desktop, a la Mac Mini. $600.00 for the 'brick' and you get what's essentially a Mac Mini. $800 gets you the same thing with a bright, sharp, fully detachable 13" display. Not that I would be in a position to know...I just like leaving cryptic comments. And I drink beer at B.J.s on DeAnza a lot.
Fascinating. People may not have picked up the reference, but DeAnza is one of the main streets running through Apple's cupertino campus. The implication is that he is in the know. A detachable desktop/portable Mac as implied here for $800 would be awesome.

Apple employees are fully (and comically) aware of those who stalk their conversations on De Anza. Especially BJ's. Apparently it's a running joke on the campus.
Would NOT be surprised if someone "leaked" this a little too loud to a rather obvious observer.
Just sayin'
Sounds right on to me. And my experience has been that fake leaks are uncommon. Of course that just makes it like a weird take on a 13" laptop with a docking station. Not saying there isn't room for that from apple -- they've been missing that compared to PC laptop makers. 'bout time.
This would also fit with the patent that was awarded earlier this year: http://www.macworld.com/article/131382/2008/01/patent.html
