Geek is chic.
Steve Jobs hasn't changed much since the '80s. It's true! I dug up an early presentation he gave back in 1983 and discovered that his keynote addresses pretty much follow the same format — blaring pop music (only back then, he had the words to "What a Feeling" changed to include Apple), black turtlenecks, and the debut of a product ad, which in this case was the very first Macintosh. The ad, Read more

There are plenty of iPad stands to choose from, but none quite like this gutted Macintosh Classic that houses the futuristic iPad in its vintage case. Although the Mac's display area is almost the same size as the iPad's, the tablet's resolution totally clobbers that of the old computer from 1990. 1990 doesn't seem like that long ago, but look how far we've come! Obviously, this modded case is Read more
