    Interesting, Orsty.

    I bet it's not a real computer, it's a computer for the people who don't like going in the guts of the machine. The original iMac had no floppy drive (What were they THINKING?!)... do they continue the legacy?

    no floppy

    I don't see on the list of features anything that resembles a floppy drive. That's probably an external upgrade. LOL

    They're just recognizing that in the near future there'll be no software written for mac...hence no need to put anything <into> the computer....hehe

    I actually reckon it looks alright. There's nothing wrong with something that's a bit out of the norm...something different every now and then - it's all good.
