May 13 2009I Want One: A Real Notebook Computer
This is a video by Dutch artist Evelien Lohbeck that features a real notebook computer. Like a notebook made out of paper. It's pretty neat, and you should watch it (kind of reminded me of A-Ha's Take on Me video). I'm fairly confident the video was made using computer trickery, but I'm not ruling out the possibility that somebody sold their soul to a powerful sorcerer. Which, let's be honest, for your soul, would be a deal. After all, we are men of low moral fiber. Which, holy shit -- another Monkey Island reference?!? I AM THE TOPS!

what no pron on the paper notebook?
14. Daisy - May 13, 2009 12:45 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max is being poked with dental tools and being asked if its safe. Unfortunately for him, he has no idea what the nut with the tools means.

That guy really likes that notebook. And yeah @15, that's what I would call a fail on the creator's part. Yawn

22. yaya - May 13, 2009 4:02 PM
You can tell this is a fake, cuz the time on her notebook display showed 13:20 through the whole 4 minute clip. HA! Not fooling me!

I think Jack is a sweet dude. His my best friend and I would completely useless without him. I like to wear a Michael Jordan Wizards jersey while I sit in front of this computer and read blogs. Jack is really cool, but im stupid.
Jon Kim sucks too.
