Hi all,

I am driving back to my hometown next week and bringing my wife (iMac) back as well to see my mother.

Instead of putting my "wife" into an "ugly" box or iMac box (well, i think it's too big), can you guys suggest for me how am i going to put my iMac in a more comfortable place ??

i suppose something like Bag?

thanks...

Nekkid!!

Assuming it wont be a bumpy ride, I dont see why you can't bring it along by the neck without a cover. Do cover the LCD tho, or at least use the styrofoam inserts of the box.

Leave your "wife" behind for the weekend . Sounds like you two need a break. I suggest getting a "mistress" (iBook, Powerbook) and taking her with you instead. The nice thing about your mistress is she can be easily concealed to avoid any suspicion and wont chain you down to one place.

Yeah... I agree with that. Some company does (or did) make a carrying case for the FP iMac, but I remember it being quite expensive ( > $120USD ) . The styrofoam should suffice though, and will hold the 'orb' speakers also.
