interesting comments; i think i've already heard them on msnbc, though. look, the imac's design is unique, it came from the company the pioneered the all-in-one design years before ibm's ps series (may i remind you of the Lisa, Lisa 2, Macintosh 128k, and MacXL?) apple was the first to begin including, in '98, translucent plastics in an all in-one-design with their PowerMac G3 All-In-One for educators and later that year, the imac. it's rediculous to tell steve now, "sorry man, it's cool to have translucent plastics and a jelly-bean shape, i think we'll steal your designs in a very gateseon fashion!" heck, dodge has already taken their 'different' slogan. it's rediculous to think that apple shouldn't rigorously protect its rights from pissant little pc makers. nike swoosh indeed.
