Post your 2006 ProMac mock-ups here!!

Posted:
in Future Apple Hardware edited January 2014
Most people seem to think apple will do a case redesign, with their WWDC professional desktops. Will apple simply improve on the current design, as in thinner/smaller etc. or should we expect a completely new approach to the overall design of their next pro desktops. Let's give those people a chance to show us what apple might do! Post your mock-ups of the new "ProfessionalMac" here in this thread. (and yes I know there is another desktop thread, but that is focused on ports, and the internal aspects, this thread is purely for aesthetics)







This is apple's current professional desktop case design:

    Perhaps you mean aesthetics?







    Dictionary

    as·cet·ic (?-s?t'?k)

    n.

    A person who renounces material comforts and leads a life of austere self-discipline, especially as an act of religious devotion.



    adj.

    Leading a life of self-discipline and self-denial, especially for spiritual improvement. See synonyms at severe.

    Pertaining to or characteristic of an ascetic; self-denying and austere: an ascetic existence.

    [Late Greek ask?tikos, from Greek ask?t?s, practitioner, hermit, monk, from askein, to work.]



    ascetically as·cet'i·cal·ly adv.





    aesthetics





    also spelled esthetics, the philosophical study of beauty and taste. To define its subject matter more precisely is, however, immensely difficult. Indeed, it could be said that self-definition has been the major task of modern aesthetics. We are acquainted with an interesting and puzzling realm of experience: the realm of the beautiful, the ugly, the sublime, and the elegant; of taste, criticism, and fine art; and of contemplation, sensuous enjoyment, and charm. In all these phenomena we believe that similar principles are operative and that similar interests are engaged. If we are mistaken in this impression, we will have to dismiss such ideas as beauty and taste as having only peripheral philosophical interest. Alternatively, if our impression is correct and philosophy corroborates it, we will have discovered the basis for a philosophical aesthetics.

    For serious,



    I don't have photoshop, and if I did I'd be completely unable to use it (I do CAD for a living, not art, hehehe)



    So will all you artistic folks indulge my fantasies and mock up something pretty? I've got hopes to get up here.



    Thanks,
