@b3ans4eva you. eat up

I own one of these. They’re not much use nowadays as I have a model which isn’t supported with Catalina patcher, it’s got a nice new SSD installed however.

Apple is total crap - who cares.

I think it's funny companies constantly take millions then disappear but never get in trouble

So the Axiotron ModBook is basically a Mac conversion like in the 80s when Colby Corporation and Outbound Systems make Laptops out of Macintosh Plus before Apple released PowerBook.

I think there is a long history of modified genuine mac computers. I recall before Apple made their own laptops, a company transformed genuine Mac computers into laptop units. There was another, I think, that replaced the screen and made other mods that gave it substantially longer battery power.

That was the ORIGINAL Mac iPad

This video is the max watch to the snazzy labs video. Just kidding man. Just found your channel and really enjoying your content!

How many subs do you have ken

The 16 inch was launched in 2019. The 13 and 15 inch touchbar are 2016 products. There was no 16 inch model at the time you mentioned

I still have my modbook! I can't get it to power on and can't find anyone willing to service the device..

What Apple has done with the iPad Pro I think is what the mod book was trying to do, like you said the iPad Pro is quite cheaper and it has lots of features that render the mod book useless, only thing is the mod book pencil was way better than the current Apple Pencil which needs a functionality update

Wow!! I wonder what happend?

The iPad pro came and that probaly killed the product in the end

*s t i l l w a i t i n g*

Can't they file for bankruptcy?

I have a TAM with OS 9.2.2 and it’s a Sonnet 500MHz G3 with 128mb of RAM

Lol sorry if you give some vaporware company $7500 you deserve to lose it.

Bummer. I found this video after noticing Modbook.com is now gone. I had the first gen Modbook. Due to a shipping mishap, it arrived terribly damaged and never worked right. Regardless, even in its battered form, it seemed like a device that was both well thought out and had great potential. Haas himself even talked to me over the phone to help me resolve the matter. Business can be a viscous counterpart to passion unfortunately.

So: Apple paid them off to not make the ModBook, because it would make them look bad, since they still don't have touch interface for MacBook... I love when big tech destroys disruptive new tech, because they don't want to keep up.

Thanks for the video! By dumb chance I was looking around at older MacBook models today, and I remembered how Modbook could mod your Macbook into a Tablet. I tried searching and found the main site suspended, but your video happened to be in the top video results about what happened.

Weird That Their Website Got Suspended.

Take that, use catalina patcher and you have a modern-age compatible mac.

ironically they're now making Apple pencil

5:20 SIX CONSOLES!!

So they raised $1.8 million and it just gone?

that intro has me dying i love it

Wait is it pronounced Way-com or Wack-om? Cause I always pronounced it Way-com

Ye

Wha com not wack 'em

Like my beloved Zune HD, this thing was released when the tech was on the edge of obscurity. Also, the drawings were adorable and whoever drew Aggretsuko has good anime tastes :)

KickScammers.

the... ehm... your modbook is actually better than my current pc haha

Another company had done the same thing to the clamshell iBook years before that. Your channel really is boring. The fact that you didn't mention this and acted like it wad such a big deal when it was done to the white MacBook shows your lack of knowledge about the Mac or about Apple. The sad thing is you have other cheesy videos that show how little you know. www.zdnet.com/article/before-there-was-modbook/

Krazy ken I seen a ad and it has windows 10 but it’s a tablet with a pen weird

isn't that just what a cellular iPad is now these days with a Apple Pen

So long story short he stole from people. At the end of the day it doesn't matter. He stole people's hard-earned money

2:45 What is this book ? :)

wey do you compair it to a surface studio? this is litery a bad version of a surface pro/surface book.

0:01 when Clan as Steve Jobs

Just use a macbook with side car for the iPad Pro.

does your mother say : come down *Krazy ken* dinner is ready ?

For r. Fort=fr

1.8 million is actually not that much in this context, keep in mind Microsoft blew over a billion on the kin phone that lasted about a month

Consequences

So this means we can sell etika joy con boyz

These not 1 device DO YOU MEAN IPAD? LOL

It was a confidence scam. Trust them at first, get scammed the second time

Mod book mini - theres loads of air in the mini. Rumour has it it can run on 12v and the board is way small. Get a HDMI touch screen from a laptop and a battery management system and you have an M1 based modbook.

I’ve had my hopes set on getting a ModBook for years. A touchscreen Mac? That’s a graphic designers dream!! So disappointed.

MacOS is just had for hardware development and Integration

Worth nothing that they didn’t just raise funds via crowdfunding, they also had financing , which they likely could not afford.

>Censor "shit" in your video (15:49) >Say bitching a few sentences later (16:26)

Oh look its zim

Which one better to be used for artists? The Wacom or Modbook?

Technically they are both the same. The modbook uses Wacom touch technology from the time and tooks like a good alternative if you can afford an up todate and expensive screen tablet, but like he said, you might have a hard time finding it and price may vary.

that's a really cool collectable. wish I had one!

Is this a Ponzi Scheme?

The iPhone was not the first multi-touch device, the year before was already released the iPad touch

is this the same Haas in F1?

I Would pledge some money but I don't have 60 bucks for a year :c and I just got the new Macs

Invader Zim !!!!!

Love your videos an I'm not even a tech guy ..an your shirt is amazing 💯

imagine if it just died because iPads

Astro pad with iPad is superior. And Apple is about their ecosystem and not one single device. This Modbook could just like be a Microsoft Surface and the experience of using it would never be great. Other than the legal issue MacOS is just not designed for touch.

if the product is not coming out, then how are you having one on the table besides you???

Love the reference at 5:13

"copy right law" when someone repairs a mac book, it tunrs magically into a PC. If your dare to take a part an iPhone and sell it in pieces, you infringe their trademark, because you are now shipping parts with apple logo without their authorization. It is not about "copy right law" or "brand law", it is plainly about if able opens their war chest to sue a company into bankruptcy or not.

12:11 16‘ MacBook Pro 🤔

I'd put money on it that the major issue they were/are facing is the hardware itself, ever since the late 2015/2016 redesign and the introduction of the T2 chip etc, the new macbooks just became impossible to touch, I attempted a project somewhat recently where I took the mainboard from a faulty 12 inch MacBook (tiny little board) and attempted to install it in a custom mini lounge PC chassis, lord god the problems I had, the second that board came out of the case, boot issues, display issues, crashing, slow processing etc etc etc, but pop it back in the chassis and boom, it's fine...even without major components like battery, display and keyboard connected.. apple has done a lot to make sure projects like this and repairs in general just aren't worth your time , I can only imagine the immense roadblocks they've faced trying to get a touchbar Mac into a totally unique formfactor, I would go so far as to say it's impossible.

Tamod book

When the windows version exists but people would rather have the apple version

Nah, they'd rather sell the MacBook and Ipad pro separately and charge over $1,000 for each

So modbook was like Oppo is to iPhone, just steal from apple use their own product change a few things and resell it? No wonder they didn't do well

Considering that this tablet has 2 more gigs of ram than my present day computer

I have one. I don't use it anymore & it's just sitting in my room, but it's pretty neat! I also had no idea they were so rare!

Is it's default . key a !?? seems your modbook has anger issues

2:51 :O THERE IS A BAD WORD AT THE TOP LEFT O:

LOL 😂 the introduction

That into was truly a work of absolute genius

the funny part is you can still get money out of that cuz I know people that would want that

Super interesting. Thank you.

It basically is a Microsoft surface book but the mac edition from 2009...

The money doesn’t seem to be a problem. Woz could have paid for the entire company, if he had wanted to. But realistically, despite the yelling from the peanut gallery, there really hasn’t been a lot of demand for something like this. It’s really too expensive. And yes, the iPad took some of the wind out of the sales.

now that you can run ios apps on an m1 chip, it would actually make a lot of sense for this to come back

I always wondered :D

first one is much bettrr then my laptop...

I wanted this soooooo bad in high school

Is it more possible for this to officially happen now that Apple has the M1? Like a MobileStudio Pro with MacOS?

Apple wont launch it because they want ipad and macbook to be sold

oh no, at 14:02 is that mark robinson of porter robinson's brother? cuz i remember he's into artist & design (also made some visuals either for merch or porter's Virtual Self)

Apple as a company and its products are scam so I would also call this a scam by proxy.

So a MacBook with an S-Pen. That's really cool!

You mean Apple pencil silly. This isn’t Samsung.

A ModBook Pro X with Big Sur would be amazing. Honestly, Big Sur to me is a big clue that eventually Apple'll do a touchscreen pro mac. Big Sur's interface makes little sense for trackpad and mouse, it can run iPad Apps on M1 equipped machines, and macOS's gestures have been touchscreen friendly for a *lonnng* time now.

It’s an iPad,good Sir......

I have an idea for how ModBook could be revived: Put the internals of the new Apple Silicon Macs with the M1 chip into the body of a modern tablet, like the iPad Pro. Give it a proper multi-touch high resolution display with pressure sensitive stylus, and maybe even 120hz refresh rate, and Smart Connector-like keyboard and trackpad support, running macOS Big Sur, of course. This would be the ideal tablet for professionals who just can’t get enough out of the iPad Pro, and with a new 5nm fanless ARM SoC, it could likely fit into the body of a thin and light modern tablet. Plus macOS Big Sur is remarkably touch-friendly.

Your voice.... are... are you the son of Ron Swanson???? dammit... tell me you are

Wait, MothBook? 😂

I made my own modbook with a white macbook shell a kamvas 13 and lots of mobos
