Apple Design Award Cube Spills Its Guts

GlenLow writes "It's amazing what some Apple Design Award winners do in the name of science. This one subjected his to a cone beam CT scan and revealed Apple's design sense extends even to a competition trophy. What's with Mr. Jobs and the cubes, cubes, cubes anyway?"

    Great story write-up. Just superlative. Let's re-write and make it clear:

    "A group of students won the Apple [Computer] Design Award in June for a program called 4Peaks. For winning the award, they received a 'trophy,' which is a metal cube with an Apple logo on top. When you touch the cube, it glows. Curious as to how this works, the students decided to take their 'trophy' cube into a CT scanner and have it scanned to see what was inside. The linked pictures (in the Slashdot writeup) are what the inside of the cube looks like. Neat looking."

    Whew...that wasn't so hard, was it?
