Now this is something that is pretty cool. Went to the website and read
some and watched the videos, very impressive. Not sure on how the cost
of it compares to more conventional metals but I agree that this could
be the next step for Apple to once again get out of the starting block
ahead of the pack

Hi all.
A while ago, I posed a question about Apple's next generation of
laptop design. The titanium of the TiBook is nostalgic already and the
choice of aluminum for the current design had me wondering what might
be next, since polycarbonate seems to be falling to the wayside.
I just came across an article on LiquidMetal in a back issue of
Business 2.0.
Maybe this is the next big thing? An alloy that can be moulded like
plastic and becomes harder than steel.
