I love 4 basic features about the Macbook Pro aesthetic:
1.) <1" thin. No debate.
2.) Metal case. Absolutely no plastic.
3.) Cube-shaped. No sloped down bottom (ick).
4.) Touch-Pad. Big and smooth, but not glass.
Beyond that, here's what I need inside:
1.) BLACK. Some white is fine.
2.) CPU: Quad-Core (Unless it doesn't fit in the <1" case). No "U" series CPU's.
3.) GPU: GT 640M (Unless, again, it doesn't fit heat-wise).
4.) 15-15.6" w/1920x1080. MATTE. IPS-preferred.
5.) As much battery life as physically possible. No less than 5 hours for casual surfing.
6.) Don't care about weight, but I'd like at least an option to limit the fan noise (as in, not spinning at all times).
7.) I don't need an OS or an HDD. I have my own. Same goes for ODD.. unless it's a really slim BD player (but prefer not).
8.) Preferably not over 1,300$, but if there's a perfect laptop for more I'll consider it.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything.
Thank you!
