Why do people waste this forums space with this? And why would someone waste so much time making a mock up like this?

hey SMacSteve, calm down. It is a free country. And unlike OP, KS some places have people with imaginations and free spirits. Have a little fun you guys. Everyone knows it is a fake it is entertainment.

Why would you want a pro machine that drops bandwidth so it can be wireless? Please...

I would be laughed to death if I had to buy one of those... A bug under my desk, I bet the cleaning people would crush it and throw it away...

You'd think they could have at least stolen the 3D button bar from the Apple store page... The mockup is not a bad rendering job (although it's ridiculous) but the web-page mockup bites.

Just keep dreaming...

That is hilariously stupid fake - thanks for posting it GK. I had a good laugh.

I like the idea of a sphere a bit, but you have all the potential of saving desk space taken up by a stupid stand.

What imagination? Some guy just copied an Apple tech sheet and substituted in some ridiculous, made-up "facts".

Cool, I'm impressed. I tried to buy one at the Apple Store but all I saw were G4s. How do I get my hands on one of these?!
