The Apple logo

bigsadhu Junior Member Cayman Island 462 Posts	Posted - 02 Mar 2002 : 02:48:17 I don't know about you guys, but I think that the rainbow coloured mac logo beats the crap out of the new boring white one. Currently, every piece of mac hardware that I own is blessed with the original logo. I just recently sold my Wall Street, which I believe was the last mac to display it. The biggest one I've got is on my //e....fully 3/4 of an inch high (for you non-metric yanks). GO YOU RAINBOWS!

Wonkothesane Full Member USA 506 Posts	Posted - 03 Mar 2002 : 20:39:43 I always thought that the pulsating aqua blue Apple logo is the coolest. The rainbow comes in a close second, though only when it is small, like the logo in the Apple menu in OS 8+.

Me likey...Woz! amen! but i'll give turtleneck credit for putting an additional slot on a lineup with no differentiation at the mobo level, i think that might be a first! at the time i thought woz musta snuck back in because my 466 will take all the same upgrade goodies as the fastest machine they sold in that generation, i snapped one up before i' d have to buy one that couldn't run OS 9. but the weasel only put 1 each 5.25" & 3.5" bays in a volume where 3 5.25" half heights ought to be. the case is very cool in many ways, but it's HUGE for a mid tower and i've got a slimline desktop PC case with TWICE as many removable drive bays and a bigger PSU, that's TERRIBLE industrial design! anything that size has to be able to accomodate removable drive trays and AT LEAST one ROM drive at the same time, a ROM/ZIP only box is pathetic. so me still no likey that style over substance pushin' turtleneck wearin' weasel, woz wouldn't have done that and i still think jobs would benifit from it if the woz came back and kicked his sorry @$$. jt AAAARRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!! . . . . .now i'm ready to kick his sorry ass, the son of a *** relegated all pre 97 spec information to the knowledgebase! you have to freakin' sign in to look up a 68k! THAT ******* ********* SON OF A **! back again: sorry, i got so upset that i forgot to say that i've never actually seen one apple logo on a macine that could look appreciably better if replaced by another style. the 3d-"rainbow" (roy g. biv should kick that putz'z ass too, btw) is my favorite, but platinum is my favorite so comparisons are moot, imho. i really had meant to make an on-topic comment* Edited by - Trash80toG-4 on 04 Mar 2002 07:48:13
Rexzilla Junior Member 132 Posts	Posted - 04 Mar 2002 : 14:54:28 Actually I think Woz has an office at Apple or should I say shrine because I think he is never there. The last time I talked to him he only adivised some things...this was on his website awhile back. I wish he had more hands on input. Circuit City has dropped the Apple last week. I went to the certified Apple reseller and he still has not even seen a demo Imac (desklamp)...he was pissed. It is getting real hard to find anything Apple on the southside of Indy. I seem to have more stuff on hand than the resellers. I am pulling for the new reseller ie. MacSelect on the southside but Apple better start shipping units to him fast. All he has is a few Imac DVs.
