So are you saying the G5 was meant to look like a cheesegrater?!
No, the design of the Sydney Opera House "sails" were actually based on, of all things, the segments of an orange, according to this commentary:

I guess maybe all great designs have food as their theme. And no one thinks Homer Simpson is smart enough to be an artist.

Check out
the rest of the photos on that page.
This thing is HUGE compared to the G4!! When Apple quoted the measurements they must not have included the handles!

Fwiw, if you hadn't noticed, the picture page counts up to picture DSC00394.JPG, while in fact it goes to DSC00401.JPG.
Thought you'd might like to see the rest of 'm, except perhaps pic dsc00398
As many have noted, the more I see the case exterior the more I like it.
The inside and the option to run it with only the transparent pane attached.... awesome

I think it would be cool if only one of the holes was the apple logo and the rest were circles.
I'd like to see the Apple logo done with Apple logo perforations, the rest just holes.
