Wow .. Looks awesome. My comments are probably small and too picky, but since you asked:
- I wish the black rubber line on the display was a pixel closer to the edge
- I'd probably simplify by removing the green iSight light. I think one dot is a stronger representation.
- On my MBA the screen in horizontally and vertically centered. In the icon, there's more of a gap at the top than the bottom/sides.
@Brenden: The iSight light is because it would represent using your webcam (at some point, in which case I'd add something to the screen itself to reflect that further).
I just measured the bezel and you're right about it being centered. For some reason my eyes deceived me when I was just eyeballing it. :)
Agree with everything above. On the bezel / black line near the edge of the top panel, I'd think about not using such a dark gray/black. It's really thin in real life and it feels pretty heavy handed at this scale with 1px being the smallest you can go.
Toootally agree with Daniel about the legibility of the keys. That's really something!

Interesting direction you went with the ambient light reflection.

But it looks great. I'm just being picky.

Looks hot Cap. In the interests of nitpicking... the keys are a tad too rounded on the edges (love how legible the letters are tho!).

Revised a little based on feedback from Brenden and Spencer.
Way too lazy to redo all the keys right now re: D. Burka.
