That FrogDesign-era aesthetic is everything. I'm as affected by it as I am by my favorite music of that era.

- Cockbrand 3y agoThe book mentioned in the article, AppleDesign, is full of great photos (of prototypes and shipped products) and interesting stories from that era. It covers the entire Frog Design era in great detail. Highly recommended, but unfortunately quite expensive these days.
- helpfulContrib 3y agoI've kept every single computer I've used since 1978, a veritable collection of over 40 machines. I still lust for an Apple IIc. Never had one, my eyes go boink whenever I see one in the wild.
- bombcar 3y agoAfter the (only) Mac in the computer lab was grabbed, the IIc was the next favorite. Everyone else had to be satisfied with green-screen older ones.
- lisper 3y agoYou can get them on eBay for a few hundred dollars.

- Cockbrand 3y agoThat’s neat! Would be really perfect if the LCD world get swapped for a modern 4k screen. Still a very nice mod!
- BugsJustFindMe 3y agoAgreed. I looked at the photos and my immediate visceral reaction was to think "Wow, that's beautiful."
- azulster 3y agofor such an influential design firm, i'm dissapointed in how uninteresting their website design is
