Very much exciting the "WANT" circuit in my brain. The price prevents it from firing, but I love the idea of opening up a book in class to take notes / compile code.
Only thing I'm questionable on: the * ziiiiip * sound when you open it. Very un-book-like. But better than velcro.
I got a plain black leather cover for my 13" Macbook Pro, mostly to protect it, but also because I wanted to cover over the glowing logo that announces my excellent taste in computer hardware.
Consequently, I've several times had people who were driven to distraction attempting to guess what sort of laptop I'm typing on.
It's a curious fact of life that hiding the logo and the style cues makes the laptop more iconic and if possible more desirable.

Admittedly, typing on what appears to be a sideways book is a good way to draw more attention to yourself, so it may be an effective strategy.

"And third, the stylish case protects you from being like everyone else because BookBook is totally original, just like you."
