So that's how it all works...





...explains a lot.

The nut-driver, icon inflator and font blurer must have been out of view on the reverse side.

Very funny, TMO.

Ah man, perfect!

A pro's eye view into the very belly of the beast. The twiddling engine exposed.

Little did you know, Thalo, that everything in the Mac OS X GUI is actually PHYSICAL. ACTUAL printed pages behind 1/8th inch screen.

I discovered actual pieces of vellum and frosted mylar under the screen. Each window is printed on a composite of foil for the frame and white mylar. The window widgets are actual plastic beads. There is a light source for dropshadows and a network of carbon fiber strings (invisible) used as pulleys.

The pages are dynamically printed then re-consumed and recycled back into the Aqua cartridge, constituent atoms sorted by color and transparency.

When you see the windows in the Apple stores and there are window pictures hanging from strings that's a scaled up version of what we have in our Macs!

(or perhaps you suspected?)

Macs even use CARBON PAPER. ctrl+option+cmd+8 will show the carbon paper layer behind all your windows.

LMAO!!!!

Holy crap brother mighty, that little slip of a thai girl did this to you? Your seratonin levels must be through the friggin' roof. Whatever it is, bottle it and sell it

I often suspected there were little chipmunk-voiced creatures living inside mac hardware. I can hear them giggling at me when I try to do something that involves actual work. "Silly thalo, Macs are for chimps..."

Nah, lack of Thai girl, if anything...but I'm going there soon again...

lol... I trust every piece in that Imac-G5, but the speed-limiter doesn't work, the OS is soo slow, they disabled it in the last minute. :-)))

Oh, man, that’s great! You’ve got to post it at other Mac forums!
