Apple He's known for his attention to detail in his product designs, which is why so many of us love him. But if you're more interested in his design, you'll be pleased to know that there's a relatively low-key section of his website where you can easily spend an entire afternoon. Apple It publishes detailed dimensional drawings of its devices, showing individual products in much more detail than regular technical specifications. And although they are primarily intended for accessory manufacturers, I think they are interesting for practically every technology enthusiast. I am not afraid to say that some of the diagrams would look great printed somewhere in a frame on the wall.

And I admit that I had no idea about the existence of such an extensive public database until now and now I will probably print a few drawings in a frame and put them on my wall somewhere.
