Is that all you intended to give us for clues!? Or is there some mistake!? Either way, It looks alot like the various surface mount resistor configurations for clocking the CPU to various speeds. If thats correct then I still have no idea what the configurarions are, IE what speed each of the 4 diagrams represents, or even which Mac they are for. OR.. I'm completely wrong and talking utter crap!

People, it's OBVIOUSLY the tri-nucleocyde chroma-bit, with simply a two parsec flagellation-codec intertwined with a bi-amped, double-torqued HQL rasterization flux.
Jeez...come on!

But it might be Batman and the chicken too.

It's Apple's current 4-piece hardware offerings:

Top left: iMac
Top right: PowerBook
Bottom left: G4
Bottom right: iBook (sneaky...I like the SE reference)

Duh. Thats a 4 player version of pong from the atari 2600. How do i know that, cause i just stopped complaining about apple's sh�tty video cards, and went out and bought a top o' the line gaming console. They'll be using these standard cartridges forever, and won't change ever from platform to platform, or from model to model. Won't have to buy one and worry about them not even making games for it (hint:N64 and others). Yeah, this was a great idea, ooh frogger, glad i got the atari, i don't think the iMac could handle the graphics of frogger. And space invaders has mega requirements, jeez, think ATI will ever get a card that can run that? i doubt it.

BTW the guy on the top right is winning.

Ok posters time to let them have it. MacNN Staff It's our duty to let MacNN know we hate intelliTXT!

Well I'm already condemned for my flagrant MP3 usage, so I have nothing to lose I guess.

Anthony, just remember that you'll probably end up sharing a flaming pit with Ca$h - are the MP3's really that good?

well, at least they can't throw a lock on this one or move it to the puzzles forum until they solve it and know for sure that it doesn't belong in the iMac
forum.

Sexkitten has the answer, she has been sitting at home with her hand raised waiting for someone to call on her for three days now.
