    You know how to type a message with the Serenata, right? Rotate the wheel for each letter.

    Well, Apple have decided to copy that for their new "MacBook Wheel".

    Here it is:

    Absolutely Great!  I love Apple but this has got to be one of the most on-target parodies of the Apple philosophy.  I can't believe how much work The Onion went to creating those stunning interface graphics.  If it wasn't so absurd I'd say it would look/work great on the BS5.

    Try reading some of the suggested sentences which scroll past - they're ludicrously random...

    *chuckles* reminds me of my favourite onion spoof, the Sony piece of ******

    Always comes to mind when seeing the latest desperate adverts trying to make me discard my Avant for any generic flat panel tv and their associated latest versions of HDMI etc.
