This thing is called "BookBook" and it's available from TwelveSouth for $80. Would be an easy remake, though, if you could find an appropriately-sized book. Besides the cool factor, disguising your expensive laptop as an old book has obvious security advantages. [via Geekologie]

That is an excellent idea and I'm not sure why nobody has thought of it before.

I wonder if it affects cooling, though?

probably - though these macs dont have huge cooling fans anyway - I guess the idea is to take it out once you use it but in your bag it just looks like a book
