With the Intel CPU news today, a 9to5Mac commenter posted the above fake commercial in our comments.
The joint mechanism is obviously a fake, but it would not be out of the realm of possibility to see a 360-degree hinge on the next generation of MacBooks coupled with a touch display —especially because Apple has taken the Mac OS in the same direction as iOS during the last few years.
More usability is made available in the MacBook with a 360-degree hinge, but it also creates less need for an iPad, which does not bode well for this concept.
