The Macbook Pro and the Macbook are clearly the one of the best looking duos of laptops on the market, but can any laptop come close to the sexiest of the two?

I do think MB design is sexier than MBP
on PC market, SONY VAIO's design is the only thing comes close, but still, not as good as MB.

Sony Vaios are really the only thing that comes close for me. I have both the MBP and the MB, and have to say I much prefer the look and finish of the MBP. Alot less easy to scratch and the speakers really make it look the part. Its very rare that you see large speakers like that, and it makes it look unconventional. Also the thickness is one of the main points. Its so dam thin compared to other laptops out there, and most laptops are just square lumps of plastic, the MB/P really curves.

Having said that, I really like the look of the Alien laptops, but they look more cool then sexy :D.

Hahahahahahahaha.

I don't think any other laptop comes close. Personally, I think the Vaio's are really ugly. Something abut them doesn't sit right. I have a MacBook but I love how white the Apple logo glows on the BlackBook and the MacBook Pro, but overall, I think the MacBook has the better design since it has the magnetic latch. The aluminum finish of the MacBook Pro is something else though...

My dad has a Vaio, doesn't look nearly as good as my MBP. I really haven't seen anything that even comes close. Except maybe that dell with the stick on flames for the back of the screen ;) :p. I personally don't like the look of the MacBook or iBook G4 that much, although the iBook G3 with the translucent keyboard looked pretty cool :D.

Well if you take away the consideration of cost, just pure design wise, I will say sony. Sony's design is excellent. Their laptops are light, thin, quiet, and they tend to be able to keep the temperature "relatively (in comparison to...let say a macbook/pro series" low.

Now if you put the cost into play, then I don't think there is a laptop better looking the a macbook/pro for around the same price.
