Steve Jobs has done it again!

Remember when computers used to be cool? Deep inside One Infinite Loop,
the Silicon Valley address of Apple Computer’s Industrial Design Lab, they still
are. Never mind that the Valley is a grim place these days and that the gold
rush has given way to the deep funk. Forget that the Internet bubble has burst,
and that Ma and Pa investors across America are wearing a
what-were-we-thinking? grimace of fiscal remorse. Right here, right now,
sitting on a butcher-block table, bathed in the sunlight that pours in through
spyproof frosted-glass windows, is-repeat after Steve Jobs now-the
quintessence of computational coolness, the most fabulous desktop machine
that you or anyone anywhere has ever seen.

###This is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.

Why is it that [[Apple]] always seems to be one step ahead of everyone else. I know that this is just a computer that’s been repackaged, but to have a flat screen, a DVD burner, and the small footprint on a consumer box is nothing short of genius. There are several people in my office that have looked at that picture and declared that they may now switch from Wintel to an iMac.

Unbelievable!

I’ve been waiting 3 years for this!

Let’s just hope that JMS can really pull this one off. I always thought that Crusade was a little bit off. It just didn’t seem to have the same quality as the original show. But this time, he’s got the full backing of the [[SciFi]] channel.
