Today, the design of the old iMacs evokes rather contradictory feelings or misunderstandings. After all, Apple has long since moved away from this design. The current aluminum body makes the iMac look like a regal machine at first glance, which in a nice wayancThe colorful plastic designs of computers can now seem childish, and the iMac G3 reminds some of a toy rather than a real machine. But Antonio tried to change that with his concept, which combined modernity with retro.

It must be said that the concepts by Antonio De Rosa, which try to capture the appearance of both the original iMacs and the current ones, look really interesting and to some die-hard fans AppI would certainly not mind having such a computer on my desk. However, at first glance, the large dimensions of the concept remind me of old CRT monitors, which are no longer used. How do you like the concept? Would a similar product appeal to you and would you decide to spend a lot of money on it?
Again an article about nothing. Nothing so hideous in design would Apple didn't really let go.
Maybe today, just look at PROčko or even iPhones :-(
I'm surprised that someone can deal with such bullshit.
I'm going crazy too. the legendary iMac G3 could never look like this and that
1. apple did not combine plastic and aluminum alloy (here you can see how ugly it is)
2. today's iMac IS the iMac G3, it's simply an evolution from plastic to alloy
it was a reaction to the positive response to the magnesium body of macs pro and powerboks,
at the same apple he wanted to cut down on plastic.
3. The iMac went from all in CRT to all in LCD. This is just a tasteless combination
4. why argue about how something would look like today, if, if something actually looks like today, how it would look like today :-D
But personally I'm not a fan of iMacs. It's just a regular soldered one. macbook with the monitor that I apple it will fill up. Not to mention the speed of obsolescence and loss of breath.
Old mac pro 3.1 (2008) still has more performance than imac 2012 (4 years difference), and only because it was possible to get ram and GPU. But of course about different consumption. Dual processor 6/12 with titanium surpasses even today's imacs and that's 8 years and 100-150W consumption. Just to get it back to normal mac pro :-(
