At this week’s Macworld Expo in San Francisco, Apple Inc. unveiled the latest member of its laptop computer family, the MacBook Wheel. At 13.3 inches, it’s the first laptop without a traditional keyboard. As Senior Product Innovator Brian Gilman put it, “At Apple our philosophy is create products that are simple to use, and nothing’s more simple than a single, giant button.”
The MacBook Wheel won’t be available for several months, but tech reporter Jeff Tate was able to test drive one. Andrea Bennett has the story.
