Actually, 'wiki' is a common name for a software system that can be used to create websites that allow easy maintenance for the user community. Wikipedia is just one application of 'wiki' tools. In Wikipedia's case the tool used is MediaWiki by Wikimedia.
I know I'm being pedantic but wiki is not Wikipedia as the World Wide Web is not the Internet :)

On LapStrap Laptop Carrying Strap Video Review:
No, no. That is not the case :) There are no hooks at all, no holes where they could appear from or anything. Just magnets beneath the plastic (or metal in Pro's case) above the screen. I used to have such locking mechanism with hooks in my Powerbook and iBook so I know what you mean but they apparently have changed it since then.
EDIT: I had to call my friend who owns the latest version of MBP and he told me that Pro actually still uses the hooks. He also told me that the rumors say the hooks will be replaced with magnet system used in MB and Air in the next release. I guess the case is now solved :)

Julie: Not that old. Mine is Core 2 Duo, bought less than a year ago. According to quick googling, Macbook Pros from the same period and Air seem to use magnetic lock as well.
