have a look at the new nokia netbook the booklet. takes a few styling tips from apple i think. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2009/aug/24/mobilephones-nokia-netbook
It's a total misrepresentation. The reflection has been made to look as though it's a few millimetres thin.
Glad someone agrees! I'd never noticed it before. There also seems to be a lot less curvature to the lid.
It's a real shame when it happens because it only ever plays into Apple's hands. Plus that thing's an Advent, and has a Celeron in it, so I'd never go near it.
There's great design from both sides of the camp, the manufacturers you normally see copying Apple are the ones who don't understand that product design is more than just how something looks.

lol...doubt that very much...
Have you even seen the Apple LED Display in person, it is pure filth! Samsung monitors are cheap and nasty in comparison. The picture quality is outstanding on the Apple also.
Look at that thing ^^^ It's hideous. Why would i want a monitor that looks like my TV on my desk? My 2007WFP is soooo much nicer.
Did you just compare a £600 monitor to one costing less than a third of that and then say it looks cheap? I don't particularly like Samsung's move away from making things functional to filling them with curves, but Dell aren't exactly pushing boundaries either.

How big is the bevel round the screen on that Advent? Poor, poor imitation.
From a design point of view i think the Dell 2007WFP and now 2009WFP have got the design spot on, it annoyed me when they got rid of the nice stand.
The amount of chin the Samsung has is a big turn off for me. Lets face it though Samsung isn't exactly an expensive brand. I do realise Apple use their panels in their displays but i just really don't like the design on the desktop range of Samsung's monitors.
When i saw that LED display in person i nearly bought it there and then it even though i had never considered it before. It was that nice.

I'm not talking about just the overall look, i'm talking about how the ad is laid out and how Apple is imitated by even their advertising style.
