Good god, that image is so fake it hurts.
At that price point it would be white (or black) plastic and not aluminum anyways. Any new tower will be aimed at consumers and not pros imho. A white/black plastic prosumer tower that looked like a the offspring of a night of unbridled passion between a MacPro and a MacBook might actually look kinda cool.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

The number one giveaway that they're fake can be seen best in the third pic. You can see the fans through the mesh; They're a little too large for that case and just happen to match up perfectly with a full-size G5's.

Someone knows how to use Photoshop with little skill. I'm impressed. Wrong font, by the way.

It would be nice, but no. Looks like I'm stuck with just my laptop for now...

*sigh* When will people learn: don't produce fakes if you have no idea how to use Photoshop!

Any ramblings are entirely my own, and do not represent those of my employers, coworkers, friends, or species

No really, I mean the only thing that tower has is being less tall and cutting all the things that make a tower a tower in the first place.

Now instead of being a "tower" it is merely an low-rise apartment.
