Default Rumoured MacBook Mini?

MY friend told me about a rumour of a macbook mini, i googled it and found a couple pictures of it.

I just want to see if anyone can confirm if this is real or not or have a certain opinion about it.
It doesn't seem very practical based on the cd drive is external, and i would rather carry around a regular labtop than the macbook mini lugging around a bunch of accessories for it

Maybe you move the cursor around with your eyes! And when you blink, you click!

Its probably fake, looks like it was made after the MacBook Air.

Besides teh fact that they are all pretty obvious photoshops, they don't even match each other. Look at the ports on the left side of the top one, and then look at the left of the bottom one. Also they are all different sizes.
