Time Magazine covers Mac of the Year

The annual Time magazine "Person of the Year" issue is on newsstands this week, and a cursory glance at the cover reveals... well, an iMac that's displaying an extremely full-screen YouTube UI. While Apple products are not featured in the POY stories (although there is a well-done profile of YouTube founders Chad and Steve), the cover picture demonstrates once again that when designers want to say "technology" with style, they choose Apple.

For other Time covers featuring Macs and iPods, check out the Time Cover Search. Don't miss this vintage Steve Jobs cover... dig the 'stache.

Thanks Mike and Robert!

So where do I find one of those mysterious Apple displays without a bezel?

Yahoo is showing a picture of a regular PC as a tease on its front page.

What century do the TIME graphic artists live in? There's no mouse in that photo. I know it would screw up the symmetry, but come on--it's 2006! It's impossible to operate a mainstream computer, Windows or Mac, without a mouse.

It would be cool if they actually made the mirror part in print so when you hold up the magazine you see yourself in the Youtube "video".

I suppose it's possible that it's a cinema display, but looks like an iMac to me.
