While watching ABC Detroit affiliate WXYZ-TV (Ch.7) 6:00pm Evening local news, Tuesday Dec. 27, the Weather Update segment was shown from the "Storm Central" computer room. Behind the Weather reporter, among a long row of PCs and monitors flashing Doeppler radar scans, was a 1st gen (it had a CD tray) blue iMac. The iMac was positioned to the left and behind of the reporter and stood out due to it's distinctive profile! The screen was doing the flicker/scan line phenominon that happen when watching a TV on TV, so I couln't see what the iMac was running. It was visible for about 30 seconds of the weathercast until they went to "bluescreens" for the forecasts.
