Does anyone suspect that Apple will settle with light metal, specifically aluminum, from now on? Is there likely to be a new industrial plastic or composite of some sort that will be more durable and damage resistant?--
No more than they've settled now...the iBooks are built of a different material.
IMO the Aluminum 'books look really nice new, really nice old, and kinda crappy inbetween ;-) Once they're scratched up to get kind of a matte finish all over, they're not bad looking, but they look kinda beat up when there are enough scratches to show, but not enough to blend.
I have no doubt that Apple will change their laptop designs in a year or so...to what is a closely guarded secret, I'll bet.
