I assume they'll end up on eBay?

I've had all the non-imac-macs and inside they were very pc case like (including the 512ke). Though the unsuccessful was the most pc-like for sure.

Of course, not ever unusually-shaped computer developed under the Jobs administration was a success. The NeXT cube failed wildly, and resulted in the dissolution and acquisition of NeXT.






Likewise, the Pixar Image Computer, ALSO developed under the reign of Jobs, also failed spectacularly in its target market (medical imaging) and would have taken the whole company with it were it not for the back-room doodling of one particularly talented artist by the name of John Lasseter, who accidentally revolutionized filmmaking and created a multi-billion dollar industry, because he was extremely bored and decided to use the computer to animate cartoons in his spare time.

Jobs just needed apple to demonstrate what it takes to make a successful cube:

Looks like a mini fridge. Or a fancy acrylic NAS.

I always thought it looked like a pop-up tissue dispenser.

It's a standard NYC abatement notice. This was was posted on the front of the building where I work- they're remodeling the lobby and part of the roof.

LoL at the above comment/picture, the reply and the reply to the reply.


I'm sure there is something to be said about dialing 311 too...

Here you go, you lonely homosexual deviants. Straps installed:









The cloth material that Robbins uses is quite nice.

Yeah, I've got the robbins with zippered glass, probably going on 5 years now. Given the rust and fading paint, it's definitely the most attractive part of the car at this point.

I've got a Robbins streamline (NB style) with glass window new in the box. Can't be bothered to install the damn thing. HT makes me lazy.
