Now that's some Mac addiction. I have kept the boxes and styrofoams that
came with out iMac and iBook. Partly because they are good boxes to store my
Commodore Amiga stuff, and mostly because I've never seen a computer come in
its own custom coloured box box before.

If you go into any PC retail outlet, all the PC's come in the standard brown
cardboard. The Mac's are different. I've just had a flashback to when I was
sitting in the library at University next to the window on a sunny day, and
a couple of techs were strolling past below carrying brand new iMac's in
their flashy boxes. I remember thinking how cool and exclusive they looked.
Those Macs went to the design department I believe, while the rest of us had
our normal PC's. Bah!
