Posted:
in Future Apple Hardware edited January 2014
has anyone else who

has seen the new imacs

in person noticed

that the cd slot in front

is a shade different

then the rest of the base

it's not noticable in

the pictures but it

really stands out

when seen in the flesh

eh?

just wondering

it it was just me . . .

    Probably a different plastic, so it can't color match presicely.

    LOL lunardelite. I tried to read your post as was it a poem or a song. It actually made sense in some strange Suzanne Vega kind of way. Anyone know the melody for lunardelites post?

    yeah

    but if it

    is different

    shading then the

    imac looks tacky

    if apple cares

    so much for

    design and aesthetics

    then how can

    different shades

    past quality/design control

    it's like

    the cracks in the cube

    all over again

    apple can't have

    it both ways

    it's not like

    the imacs are

    inexpensive



    iunno



    just ranting

    Jobs speaks. It is not a bug.

    It is a feature.



    Color varieted -

    Means SuperDrive is found fast

    In low light settings.



    Shiller agrees. Says:

    "It is an awesome advance!"

    "Only on iMac!"



    Ives is 404 -

    "Designer not found." I fear

    Freshly bruised Briton.



    Dell is already

    Making off-color drive doors.

    Mike will take credit.



    Bill Gates, unhappy.

    No one gives a shit about

    That stupid Mira.

    I saw the new machine at an Apple Store ... the difference in tone is minimal, and only noticeable up-close.

    the g4 case

    also has variation

    i think this is

    because the case

    is matte and

    the door for

    the cd tray

    is shiny

    Instead of mocking him maybe someone should tell him that if you keep typing it takes a new line for you!

    It's not much different, but it's noticeable.

    Is it perhaps

    because you can see

    the black of the tray

    beneath the front plate?

    the quicksilver tray

    is also black

    underneath but

    it is not very noticable

    at all

    the only difference

    is that one is matte

    and one is glossy
