iMac G5 Porn Roundup

Posted by pudge on from the take-it-all-off dept.

boredMDer writes "Apparently someone who has already recieved their iMac G5 has decided to take it apart. Stupid if only for the fact that he's just voided his warranty." pjcreath writes "Apple has posted official pages listing the components that are 'easy' to install (including the LCD!) and describing how to troubleshoot hardware problems using diagnostic LEDs inside the case. For the very curious, you can download the high-resolution TIFF (10MB) of the iMac's innards from Apple."

  1. I don't think he worries about warranties by kcarlile · · Score: 1, Redundant

    I have my doubts that he's voided the warranty, but the dude who runs this site doesn't seem to care. He always takes things apart and posts the pictures.

  2. File Size by daern · · Score: 0, Redundant

    Errr, is it me or does that 10MB archive file actually contain an 7.7MB tiff file?

    Unless my (Windows XP) PC is doing something very odd (unlikely), Apple have managed to compress this file and make it bigger!

    For comparison, a zipped version (done using the Windows built in stuff) is 7.4MB so it was hardly worth bothering in the first place...
