    Heck yeah, such a unique design! I’ve got a widescreen one in my collection, but without the speakers, sadly.

    I want Apple to make something that wild again. They’ve been a bit more on the conservative and safe end lately.

      They had to steal much needed market share from Microsoft/Intel at the time, so they did crazy stuff. Now they’ve got something to lose.

      I would not say that completely replacing Intel is a conservative move

        ?

        I don’t think I implied Apple was being conservative from an engineering stand point. I meant it from a design standpoint. From an engineering perspective, what Apple has accomplished in computing in recent years has bene nothing short of game changing in every product category it’s touched.

    I remember how frustrated I was with that. We got them in the office, and nobody could figure out how to open the CD drive. We were all Windows users previously, and we spent way too much time trying to open the drive, without any success. One of my coworkers knew a guy who was using Macs, so he called him over. The Mac user looked at us as if we just recently fell from the sky, said “but it’s so obvious!” and proceeded to click and drag the CD drive icon into the Recycling Bin, which opened the drive.

    I really loved the early iMacs. Such standout computers for those made at the time.

      Yeah I remember seeing them on display in John Lewis (uk department store) in like 2002 or whatever and thinking they looked like the coolest fucking computers I’d ever seen. Really great design imo shame it only lasted one generation.

    Man those hinges were just so solid and 🤌🤌🤌

    That screen was just floating on air, taking the slightest touch to adjust. But never wobbling with your typing! One of the most over-engineered things and it was glorious

    I’d love it if they went back to some of their more ‘experimental’ designs. The current iMacs look good, if a bit…derivative.

        They really let themselves go crazy before going full ‘minimalist’. It’s a shame they never went back to some of their crazier ideas.
