Modbook

So, although we have not discussed anything like this in class, I must say that the Modbook looks awesome. The Modbook from Axiotron takes your everyday Mac and makes it even better. I'd say it would be best suited for those in the design field though, but it looks fun no matter what you use it for. The Modbook is different from the standard Mac in this really great way, it's a tablet. This means you can use a stylus and write on it and have what you write/draw appear on your screen. I'm sure some people are thinking, "Wow, big woop, I can do that on my phone...whatever." As a former graphic designer, this is amazing. Instead of having to "draw" using a seperate tablet and pen device, hoping that you lay the pen exactly right, you can simply draw on the monitor of the Modbook just as though you were drawing on a piece of paper. This is a step up from the tablets with interactive display and the whiteboard types as well as the HP Touch because you get the ability to use the Modbook as a regular laptop as well as a drawing tool. Pretty awesome.
