So what's it going to be for the new OnePort Air, /g/?
An etherkiller but with a USB-C plug on the end?
Why would it be 60 secs on 700w and 70 secs on 800w.... Close but yet too far...
>>46937568
The iPhone is optimized for 700mhz wireless signals so it takes less time on a 700 microwave than an 800w one.

>yfw Macfags seriously fall for this shit
>>46937498
the screen can be put on the back of the keyboard so the mb can be used as a tablet.
Obviously there is a small protection and the user must force a little when the screen wont go further.
Screen is also Force Touch enabled.
computer is waterproof
>>46938760
This...this might even work

I don't know how photoshop or gimp werks. Sadly I can just give the idea.
>>46938760
Best one so far
>>46937498
>An etherkiller but with a USB-C plug on the end?
Yes, this. But how would you get people to do that themselves? You'd have to make it and send it to them which opens up a new can of worms.
I think >>46938760 is the best idea.
>>46938760
God damn, someone make it happen.
>>46938760
upvoted
>>46937498
>60 seconds at 700W or 70 seconds at 800W
That doesn't even make any fucking sense. How do people fall for this shit?
>>46938760
Don't forget to mention that the touchscreen only activates at this point. It's disabled in normal view so that you can use the trackpad and everything.
>>46938896
Because they're idiots with more money than they deserve.
>>46938587
>cracked screen
oh god, do people seriously do this?
>>46938923
yup you're right.
We should start writting the publicity. We'll photoshop it once we got it.

Maybe some BS about it having no fans
"Through streamlined innovation, our Apple engineers have achieved a MacBook completely free of moving parts with a fan-less design, introducing Apple Zero Kinetic Interference™
At apple we know your life doesn't stop, so your
laptop shouldn't either. Waterproof for 10.6ft, the
new MacBook is resistant to spills, rain and can
even be used in the bath or shower so you can be ready can whenever inspiration hits."
It'll need tidying up a bit.
>>46939069
Yeah, fanles==sealed. Make up some bullshit about how the USB 3.1 port is waterproof or something
>>46937498
BUT HOW MUCH MICROWAEV TIME IS THAT
>>46939069
Remove the shower thing. You're pushing a little there. Got to sound realistic. Also 10 ft is around 4 metres for non-US.
>Not trolling on the smart watch instead
Automatic watches of yesteryear were charged by regular use and by spinning. The new Apple Watch can be charged through similar means through proprietary thermokinetic charging. All that needs to be done is a run through the washer and dryer.
>>46938848
that only worked because the solder got cracked from rapid cooling and heating

>full of “le trust me, this is normal XD”
I doubt even Apple consumers are going to fall for that.
>>46940536
background of the text should be the same color of the background of the macbook picture
>>46940596
Tell me what I should say then.
>>46940599
I was using op's image as a reference, it has a white background under the text.
>>46940536
remove the
"on your first use the screen will go blank, this is normal and the downloading required software...."
Apple consumers are stupid and can't understand something with too much steps
Just like that. Now that they got a watch.. is it waterproof ? is there something to do with it ?
>>46940636
Okay I removed that line and fixed the typos I could find.
>>46940730
guess it's time to ask /b/ some helps.

Reads too much like a fucking dialog; remove formulations like “Now, ”, and get rid of the “any noises you hear are normal” bullshit.
Use fewer words, and fix your unprofessional-sounding formulations (“are some tiny micro-switches” etc).

The new macbook only has a USB 3.0 Type C port. That's it.
I don't think it even has its own charger.

Find or mock up some Apple Care certification for water resistance and warranty

should we translate them in different languages ?
What about something for the apple watch?
"completely waterproof" and stuff. (it is not really waterproof as is put it in water. they just said it might be okay in rain.)
The macbook tablet mode is great.
>>46948199
it's difficult for the smart watch. There is no reason for a guy to put the watch in the water (or maybe a bath or a shower, so the idea would to take a guy in a shower and photoshop the watch).
>>46948325
well. most watches are waterproof.
Even pebble advertises that you can use it while swimming or under the shower. So it would be plausible for the apple watch.
>>46944401
get rid of the "iPad" and think of some kind of unique name for it, Apple wouldn't cross-brand like that.
>>46948404
iFlex, iFlip, iBreak.
Anything simple with i.
>>46948437
>iFlip
This.
>>46944401
someone needs to Photoshop it like this
>>46948572
Yea that's what I was trying to do when I made it but I'm not good enough with Photoshop or Illustrator to pull it off. I had pic as a reference
I will change the text but I don't believe in the idea anymore. I mean I know we're targeting retards, but it's obvious the hinge can't go past a certain point because the screen's bottom bezel will go into the keyboard. Are there really people that stupid out there?

This. Now we need to spread it.
>>46949303
I think it would look better if the keyboard side was on the left. But that's just probably my slight ocd kicking in
>>46949303
FUCKING THIS!
ITS PERFECT! LITERALLY PERFECT

You might want to make the description a little more concise.

Idk they called it retina display, so i followed the pattern
>>46950042
Yeah I know where you're coming from but display has a more pleasant tone to it than hinge. Hinge sounds really awkward to me, something Apple wouldn't really use. But what do I know, I'm not Apple.
>>46941354
This is MacBook Air. Not that new model
>>46938760

These are fucking great, but remember that lately Apple has been going full minimalism with their naming, I think a single word would be better. It's not like people dumb enough to fall for these would notice, though.
Also
>switches to iOS
this smells too much like bullshit, I'd stick to some new feature set introduced with the latest Yosemite update.
yo guys, there already is some new butterfly shit with the apple, its the keyboard http://www.apple.com/macbook/design/
With the new MacBook, they finally released the Clamshell Ipad.
>>46949303

Alrightly then, ill wait a little till i spread that shit to /pol/
>>46950595
we still have plenty of time, the hype is going to last a week at least
>>46950614
Trick is make it spread fast like a virus, we just need to see a few dumbasses buying that crap.
>>46950489
This is good, but "spin me right round" seems out of character for Apple. Call it "literally revolutionary" or some other variant instead.
>>46950551
Reminder to not spread it yet, and wait for the 10 april.
>>46950650
>revolutionary
damn, that gave me an idea, we should call it "Revolve" or some shit
We can't spread this too early before the release because it will give Apple time to release a statement that the keyboard can't be flipped
>>46950520
>Tfw I came up with a name Apple actually used
Name suggestions? We've got Flip, iFlip but I don't like them too much
>>46950650
It's taken from you spin my head right round song, apple likes this kind of thing no? But I also like Literally Revolutionarry
>>46950489
Try going with "Innovative flexibility, true ingenuity"
isheep usually fall for that style.
>>46950650
>"literally revolutionary"
>>46950683
>>46950520
People will here 'butterfly' on the news when they are talking about the new apple stuff and think they were talking about this
use butterfly
>>46950709
This, the butterfly switches were an incredible coincidence.
Why are you planning this so early when the new Macbook has not even reached consumers yet? At least wait until April 24th when the damn thing hits the stores.
>>46950489
Get rid of "the" wherever you put "the Macbook", Apple refers to their products as "iPad", "iMac", and "Macbook". e.g "When you use Macbook, your life just werks"
>>46950808
>April 24th
That's the stupid watch's release date whoops. April 10th.
>>46950829
Were prepp'ing a month in advance. We'll probably have more shit ready by then, possibly like;
>With the new Macbook, you can use the new Apple™ plug you can charge your laptop via injecting coffee straight to the connecter cable and charge your laptop on the go! This will boost the performance of the Macbook and help cooling it down to subzero operating temperatures, truly a unique innovation.
>>46950677
aye aye
but we still gotta come up with more shit, and release one chunk at a time.
>>46949892
ok how about this
>>46950902
This sucks
>>46938760
Use their marketing speak, too:
Not just a thinner display. A better display.
To create the thrilling new experience of Macbook, we combined the power and versatility of Mac with the intuitive and elegant design of iPad. So you get the best of both worlds.
With the new Force Touch Retina Display, you can experience the fluidity of iPad on a trackpad or the precision of Mac on a touchscreen. The Force Touch Retina display is engineered to deliver precise touchscreen control for tactile feedback. So you get a responsive click anywhere on the screen. The screen comes equipped with force sensors, allowing it to detect how much force you're applying. You can experience your Mac as never before.
The revolutionary Flip Hinge allows you to use Macbook as either a laptop or a tablet. So you have power when you need it and portability when you don't. Simply fold back the Retina display to enable Force Touch on the display. Our revolutionary MagLatch prevents accidentally folding the screen. So your computer responds to what you want.
Our fake marketing must be precisely designed to use gratuitous adjectives and unnecessary sentence fragments. So it seems like Apple. This is just a rough draft and can be improved to be much better. So it will fool all those moronic sheep who bought this garbage.
>>46950042
give me a minute, just posted that ipad like thing, i'll try
>>46950981
That's honestly pretty nice. Much better than mine >>46941354 (which was the wrong model anyway, fuckin lel)
You should try using something like this screenshot on the monitor though, looks more touch-friendly. Also the screen looks too big for the hand, people might call bullshit.
>>46950990
I really have to stop drinking after work, even the gf is getting a bit pissy about it.
>>46950981
Bloody brilliant m8, just add a bit of text on the bottom and it's perfect.
>>46950995
This was pretty good, kek
>>46950520
The fuck? There already is a Butterfly keyboard:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_ThinkPad_Butterfly_keyboard
And it's ten times better than this chiclet bullshit.
That actually might be funny, though: spread around the Thinkpad butterfly keyboard so anyone searching for the Macbook's keyboard will find a thick black plastic box from 1995.
>>46951043
I wrote it in about 30 seconds. I think I got the style fairly accurate, but it's not in any way polished.
We need people with more time and more writing ability on this project.
>>46951078
You underestimate yourself, that is pretty well written. Albeit i don't buy the 30 seconds part.
>>46950995
>So you have power when you need it and portability when you don't.
>>46951123
That's hyperbole, sure. I probably worked on it for about ten minutes. Point is that it isn't finished.
I'm still working on it and may post a new version in an hour or so.
What about that the USB type c can be switched to a normal type A port by pulling the little tab on the inside out with a pair of pliers
>some bs about trying make it a more convenient switch from type a to type c by putting both in
>>46951171
I was intending to say you have power when you need power and portability when you're doing more casual things which don't need power.
It is worded strangely, though. I've since edited that line on my local copy to read:
>Power, portability, and the magic of Force Touch Retina. A full-size touchscreen experience in our smallest notebook ever. The power of Mac, at your fingertips.
Gotta have grammatically unnecessary commas. Apple loves those.
>>46951304
Nah. Apple would never ask users to use pliers. Never ever ever ever under any circumstances. Macbooks don't even have user-replaceable batteries, so there's no way they'd want you within five miles of it with pliers.
You *could* claim that it is compatible with some other type of plug that looks like it might fit but would break it. MicroUSB, perhaps?
>>46950995
I'd avoid cross-branding it with the iPad, they're two different things and I don't think Apple would take it from this angle.
>>46951382
Yeah. I've redone most of this on a local copy, which I will post at about 4:00 EST.
>>46951382
Another thing I'm doing is making it more general marketing as opposed to just marketing of one feature. That way it might be a bit less obvious it's fake. The computer-destroying bullshit will show up alongside actual things people can verify from other sources.
So I'm rewriting this entire page:
https://www.apple.com/macbook/
It'll contain actual information with one or two bits of nonsense which will ruin the machine.
>>46951456
fuckin' nice
>>46951518
I thought so. The use of actual professional images, text, and verifiable facts should make out stuff look more legitimate.
It's also possible that our stuff will look really fake alongside the actual Apple stuff, but in that case I can just take out the actual Apple stuff.
>>46951562
Honestly put we have some skilled people working on this kind of crap. The important thing is to get all the summerfag kiddos on /b/ to bite the bait.
>>46938760
yes!
>>46951606
I'm not doubting we can make it look good. However, people have seen similar images before. They're probably beginning to doubt these fake images by now.
We need to adapt.

Well that`s where I copied my section from. I`m hoping to have it look exactly like that page so it`ll seem like it came from the same source and they just missed it on the website.
I was thinking of recreating some their sections and slipping my image in the album of photos, maybe someone could write a fake review article about it with the picture slipped in there as well?
>>46951857
Exactly, if we put it out too early were bound to screw up. As much as some users already learned from the prior attempts, there is never a shortage of gullible idiots.
>>46951857
jesus christ I hope this becomes a real thing.
Is there any reaction footage of some idiot microwaving his 1000$ Iphone, btw? I want to have a giggle..
Here is one potentially major problem: when folding the screen back, the keyboard will be exposed. What happens when you press buttons in tablet mode?
My suggestion is to clone the Thinkpad Yoga. It retracts the keys when in tablet mode so you can't accidentally press them. We could claim it's called Butterfly because the keyboard emerged when you go back to notebook mode like a butterfly coming from a cocoon, but I'm having difficulty making that sound good in the writing.
I'm working something about the keyboard hiding when you fold the screen into my fake ad copy.

Release it to the public
>>46951917
That`s assumed, but we are dealing with idiots so we can mention that it`s automatically turned off by butterfly
>>46951902
the perfect amount of bullshit and buzzwords
>>46951902
people will stop once they meet resistance from the hinge opening limit
need to add some "there is initial resistance from the click lock which ensures the display doesnt accidentally swith on butterfly while in use on a desk, simply push harder to pass the click lock and activate butterfly" etc. someone write it in apple language
>>46951952
Well that`s why I don't like the idea even though I've been reworking the ad all day.
Even if you say there is initial resistance, the way the hinge looks, it`s obvious that it would never be able to fully rotate. Maybe we should advertise it as 180deg instead of 360?

Make sure you get the spelling right.
Also, (c)2014?
What's going on with this?
>>46951902
>Literally revolutionary
too much meme, also use this >>46950489 paragraph layout and wording.
>>46951977
Say something about a magnetic lock system that keeps the screen up when in pc mode, so it behaves *exactly* like you want it to
>>46952009
we've dumped that one
>>46951902 is latest
>>46952030
Ya I was going to put that in; I'm not happy with the writing, but writing isn't my strong suite. I'll revisit the thread later tonight and integrate the best suggestions.
>>46952013
I don't know, I can't see the previous 204 replies either.
We need so standardize our terms. What is the hinge called? What is the screen called? What is the keyboard called? What is the "flipping" feature called? What is the tablet mode called? Exactly what does this "flipping" feature do?
I think Butterfly is the best option for the hinge and the "flipping" feature, but it is already taken by the keyboard. So we either need to find some convincing way of renaming the keyboard or we need another name for the "flipping". I would say we should call the feature Revolve because it sounds appropriate, gives us lots of great opportunities for lines about how Revolutionary it is, and isn't already taken. If we call it Revolve, Google searches for "Revolve MacBook" will find our stuff. If we call it Butterfly, Google searches for "Butterfly MacBook" will find the keyboard.
Here is my tentative list. We can change this as needed, but consistency is vitally important.
The flipping feature is called Revolve. Revolve activates Force Touch on the display and disables the keyboard and trackpad. In order to keep the keyboard from being damaged or from being annoying, the keys retract when in tablet mode like the Thinkpad Yoga.
The hinge is called the Revolve Hinge.
The tablet mode doesn't need a special name.
The Revolve Hinge comes with a special latch called MagLatch, like MagSafe. This latch will keep the screen from accidentally reversing (explaining the resistance when breaking) and will hold the screen flat against the body in tablet mode.
>>46951902
That's great.
My only complaint is that the reflections are off. The screen should reflect the back of the other screen, but it looks transparent instead. The logo reflection is all wrong. But very well-designed with just some polish needed.
I would also suggest "Revolutionary. Literally." rather than "Literally revolutionary", but that's not a biggie.
>>46950042
yo i found your post. I hope it is an improvement
>>46952128
KEEP IT AS BUTTERFLY
PEOPLE WILL HEAR APPLE AND BUTTERFLY TOGETHER ON THE NEWS AND IT ADDS A HUGE AMOUNT OF LEGITIMACY TO OUR IDEA
THE AVERAGE PERSON REALLY IS TOO STUPID TO PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER
>>46952137
Maybe I should add a round arrow to point which direction its going? or maybe the bottom display (left bottom) should be removed?
>>46952166
no its better how it is
>>46952137
that one looks a bit better. not so squished. more balanced and just right.
>>46952137
lower the opacity on the second one counter-clockwise from the keyboard so it matches the other screens
>>46952137
Wow much better than mine.
Ok but now the monitor half is transparent while the lid half is opaque. Can you make them all opaque? or did you use my image as an initial copy?

No idea which one that is
>>46952301
I used yours, I can remake, is no hassle, it will be way more adjustable, give me a minute.
>>46952347
same one he was talking about, I'm just a retard and couldn't name it
second lid one
>>46952137
On the left, are those reflections or are the screens transparent? They look like reflections, but they're wrong.
So I think you should make the transparency more obvious.
call it butterfly - don't be literal
apple doesn't call it "high-resolution display"
>>46952336
And I should specify that "retract keyboard" under behavior means like the Thinkpad Yoga, not like the original IBM Butterfly keyboard.
>>46952336
Shit. Anyone have any idea how to make a multi-option poll that works correctly? I was trying to see what percentage of people would vote for each one, but it's just total votes.
I assume everyone will vote for "enable touchscreen" on behavior, so we can get a decent estimate. But it isn't perfect.
>>46950995
This needs very little correction and it's ready to go.
Someone with photoshop skills please make it happen.
I have another poll because some people want to call the display Multi-Touch Retina and not mention Force Touch:
Should the touchscreen have Force Touch or just a normal touchscreen like the iPad?
>http://strawpoll.me/3840549
apple's keyboard switches are called butterfly - i think this makes this even better
>>46952591
I'd roll with Multi-touch display with ForceTouch™ technology.
yo here's the opaque version. Didn't error check it, but how is this, I think maybe some transparency would be nice, but ill let you decide. I feel some transparency is more "apple like"
Here's my revised fake copy:
>The Best of Both Worlds
To create the thrilling new experience of MacBook, we combined the power and precision of a Force Touch trackpad with the intuitive versatility of the new Multi-Touch Retina display. You can experience the portability and fludity of a touchscreen on Mac and the precise control of Mac on a touchscreen. So you get the best of both worlds.
The Multi-Touch Retina display is engineered to deliver precise control. Using the same technology as Force Touch, MacBook instantly responds to pressure and provides haptic feedback. The intuitive Multi-Touch gestures Mac users love have been brought to a touchscreen for the first time. You can experience your Mac as never before.
>The revolutionary Butterfly Hinge allows you freedom to use the Macbook the way you want. Simply fold back the Retina display and the Force Touch system will activate, allowing an enthralling Multi-Touch experience. The MagLatch technology prevents accidental folding and securely locks the display when using the touchscreen. So your MacBook always does what you want. Simply bring the display forward to deactivate the touschscreen and return to the Mac experience you know and love.
Power, portability, and the magic of Multi-Touch Retina with Force Touch. A full-size touchscreen experience in our smallest notebook ever. The power of Mac at your fingertips, wherever you are.
I'm fairly happy with the parts in black. The greentext still needs some work.
>>46952885
I disagree. Apple likes reflections, not transparency. That needs more reflections, not more transparency.
>>46950981
brilliant.
So, what double niggers said they'd specify a new name for the keyboard in the thread and then never did?
>>46952911
And at this point, I'm done with writing. I have to go. I'll still hang out ITT, but I'm not going to try writing on my phone. Someone is welcome to finish up my fake copy if they think it's decent.
>>46951933
not yet
REMINDER TO EVERYONE :
DO NOT RELEASE ON REDDIT, /b/ or ANYWHERE.
Keep it on /g/ or on boards like /gd/ etc. We must finish the design, make sure everything is perfect, and release it the same day of the new macbook release day (10 april)
I did the poll, but I don't think mentioning the hinge as a hinge is a good idea. I think it should be mentioned (ofc), but only that after the snap or click (or something), the screen will <insert something it'll do>.
Also, butterfly is not good. They introduced it in their name, and after all this making up, it has to work. We should use a simple name (like the poll mentioned, something like Flip (which is a bit blunt/unclassy) or Revolve or whatever).
>>46952971
i hit that on accident xd not a good idea!!!
>>46940536
what the fuck is this bullshit?
it will never work
>>46948681
Just call it Flip.
I'm going to use a trip ITT, and I think anyone else who wants to collaborate should. Should make things a bit easier.
>>46953044
Yeah, we should probably redo the polls every so often because people's opinions will change as we discuss things.
Someone want to take charge of that? I would, except I'm traveling.
>>46953042
Some macintologist is gonna do it for damage control.
>>46951018
pretty good point, I just the hand of some anons post with a different model. if we gonna use it i'll definitely look for a bigger hand or ill change the size of the macbook
>>46953216
nah m8, everyone's here for laughs
We still doing this?
Didn't /b/ already make one? >>46950130
We have to settle on one and push that to the public. If there are 20 different ones, public won't buy it
yo the photoshopper here, I'm gonna go for an hour or so, ill check out replies then
>>46951018
I don't think the hand is a problem. Hand models have small hands.
Perhaps it could be a bit bigger, but the fact that the hand looks small isn't unusual.
>>46952911
Could I get some feedback on this? Is it good enough that I should finish it up tonight?
>>46953271
k, see you later dud
>>46953258
yeah i have a feeling that people on the internet arent going to listen and properly coordinate this
>>46953258
First of all that's still on /g/ and not our to the public. secondly were trying to create the ibend MK.2 , not a thin aluminum titanic.
>>46953258
Should we try to collaborate with them? We don't want our version getting out until next month, but I think our version is much better because it's more believable and is something people are actually going to want to test.
>>46953042
Don't worry poorfag, I emailed Gizmodo with this url.
