Product description from manufacturer

The Axiotron Modbook is a revolutionary slate-style tablet Mac that enables users to draw and write directly on the screen. Axiotron's innovative design and manufacturing process integrates an Apple MacBook computer, state-of-the-art Wacom pen-enabled digitizer technology and Axiotron's own proprietary hardware and software components into a complete tablet solution, the Axiotron Modbook. Built for artists, mobile users, students and professionals, the Modbook's condensed form factor and integrated pen-based user experience offer unprecedented flexibility and control over the creative process. Users of the Modbook can draw and sketch directly on the screen using popular graphics applications like Corel Painter X and Adobe Photoshop . Every Modbook also comes equipped with a built-in iSight camera, optical drive and Global Positioning System (GPS). Both the Axiotron Modbook's top shell and interior display frame are built from top-grade aircraft quality magnesium alloy, giving the Modbook its superior structural strength. Unlike the anodized aluminum used in most computers, the Modbook's tough and scratch-resistant magnesium top shell is protected by a triple layer of metal plating - nickel over copper and topped with chrome. Both the LCD panel and built-in iSight camera are protected by chemically strengthened Axiotron ForceGlass. Compared to cheaper plastic solutions found in most tablet computers, ForceGlass provides superior optical, anti-aging and scratch resistance properties. There is an anti-reflective coating on the inward-facing side of the ForceGlass screen cover increases light transmissivity for a brighter and clearer image. The outward-facing side has been acid treated to achieve an etched surface calibrated to match the display resolution, eliminating "sparkle" effects and providing a crisp, paper-like drawing and writing sensation.
