$20 at Best Buy - I would have preferred it in black or brown but this was literally the only one they had. Oh well.

hah I like your "box setup" you have there. My boxes are just stacked on the side of my closet, one day I'll get around to clearing a shelf in there and doing a showcase like what you have there. My imac box is in the garage though, that thing is just too damn big to keep around the house. I agree, I love the new apple boxes, there's no other company that comes close to their style and simplistic packaging. I think the older apple packaging have that vintage tech look and are just so rare to see that they have their own charm though

Thanks :)
I only really got around to it after my closet started to fill up. At that point I cleaned it out a bit and thought "you know what would be pretty..." and there we are. I have two iMac boxes in the basement that I just pretend don't exist, it's not worth the trouble of making them display-ready ;)

I can certainly agree that the older boxes/packaging have a huge appeal for their classic look and rarity, but I feel like comparing them to the newer boxes is unfair to both sides, to be honest.

All that said, I really want a TAM box. The computer itself is light years out of my price range, but the box would be nice to have.

Nice. Clean. Ergonomic. Minimalistic. Modern. Clearly organized.

Thanks for the hi-res pics - they really help.

[/Sarcasm] ;)

Just kidding! Post your new pics soon.

I dunno, the reflection of the keyboard seems really bright, much brighter than it is normally with the black glass. I thought it was a screen protector like this, just for a MacBook Pro:

So, a little backstory first. I'm currently in Dubai for an internship, which is why I've had to invest in some new furnitures for work and play. Fairly messy still, and theres not much there, but its perfect for me. Its all Ikea stuff (trying to keep the theme going from these threads) and I'm also going back to the mall this weekend to pick up some cable management things, as well as a new monitor, as my other one is stuck back in the UK. There are also a few things missing. Namely:
- iPhone 4 used for the pictures
- 320GB imation HD in the locker
- PS3 back in England, waiting for my return!
- Harmon Kardon Go Play speakers; also back in England

Stuff there:
- 2.2 ghz Blackbook newly upgraded with 4GB ram, and a 500gb hd soon
- 32GB wifi+3g iPad
- Magic mouse
- 8gb 2nd(?) gen nano
- Rain mstand (definitely didn't see that on here first)
- WESC Oboe 'phones
also got a 40" on the other side of the room which imma hook the Mac up to.
sorry about the crappy quality, when I get it all sorted I'll take some better pics in daylight

Its a great case; I wanted something I could stand up, but wasn't really impressed by the Apple one. This Incipio one was far cheaper, and does a great job of standing the iPad up too.

thank you! in fact I've the apple one and I really hate the fabric, it looks quite poor and it gets dirty very quickly. Plus, the whole thing starts being a little bit loose. the only thing that I like about that case is that it's very light
