New brushed aluminium iMacs concept

[Ertai88]

Here's my take on what the new iMacs should look like.

Just take a Cinema Display and add:

-Built in Hi-Fi speakers

-Built in iSight

-Dual drives

Hey you took the side from my design how dare you!

nahh its cool, I like seeing different people's ideas, so i dont mind people borrowing.

what have you added above the usb port though? is that a brightness control?

I was actually inspired by the first 'cube' design. Thats where I originally got the idea to mix the colored brush metal with the imac design.

I Like This just saw it on gizmond.com

i don't think i like this new color scheme idea, it looks like the children series.

jdx6, now thats something I and the rest of America would buy, its got that iPhone look to it.

childish...?...lets not forget the original imac, and the flower power one...

theres a child in all of us to a degree- who says you cant look smart and fun at the same time?

has Apple lost its cheeky smirk?

(and long forgotten its rebellion on 'beige boxes', ok so no mac is beige, but even macbooks have lost the gloss and gone for a matte black finish, which in my books is next to beige for boring computers).

Doesnt anyone agree?

[iGo]

I don't agree..

I hated those colored iBooks (looked more like jazzy toilet seats IMO), iMac (the flower power ones) were cool enough if not great.

Even today, black & white macbooks and white iMacs looks chick enough without going overboard (multi colored).

I think I'll prefer silver/white iMac against colored ones, at least I hope apple won't go for too funky in-your-face colors.

hahaha cool concept.... i like the iphone style, but truth is I probably wouldnt use a multi-touch computer.

While it works for the iphone (yes i know its essentially a computer), it doesnt really work for a stationary desktop (just look at HP's offering).

While it would be 'cool' at first, eventually it would become irritating holding your arm/hand up to the screen especially to type etc... mouse and keyboard is the ultimate for the average (lazy) pc user.

nevertheless, a cool video and certainly a cool look and style, worthy of the new imac.

+1 I agree.

WRONG Wrong AND WRONG! once again no one can predict apple.. http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/07/live-fr...ess-conference/

I like it though! Too bad the new wireless keyboards don't have a number pad...

^ I like illidian's photoshopped concept*

In fact, I went in to my Apple shop today and saw it today its wayyy good.

snappy, fast, sexy and the new ilife suite is awesome, specially iphoto's revamp.

-*this bit is a joke.

[illidan]

and new apple keyboard is so... sexy

[Mac Intosh]

I don't like the wireless one so much.

[Levi- The perfectionist]

I don't like the wireless one so much.

I think they're both cool....

I had a play round with both at an apple shop and let me tell you, they both feel so nice to type on!

the keys are spaced unlike the macbook keys meaning mininal typos (like going for the k and pressing the L at the same time).

yet they still maintain the flat feel of the macbooks which allows your fingers to skim from key to key very quickly, without having to withdraw you finger after pressing each one.

best keyboards ever.

The wireless keyboard isnt that much different- it lacks the number pad and seperate directional keys but besides that.

the wireless keys are virtually in the same locations even though extra keys have been slotted in.

only real grumble is that the direction keys are a little small for playing games with

no less the wireless is a handy size to move round.

The weird thing about the new iMac is that is brushed metal, Steve Jobs said that leopard will not include the Brushed metal interface on Mac OS leopard, so why make a new brushed metal iMac?

[Quillz]

The new iMac doesn't appear to be brushed metal to me, it just has an aluminum enclosure.

[Mac Intosh]

It is a very light brushed metal. You can't really notice it unless you are up close with it. It just fits better with the black frame around the iMac Screen.
