Flickr Find: Inside an Apple manufacturing plant

i have two of them. The two containing the supposed green and pink imac. Hey who knows, maybe thats why they're gone.
E-mail my 'name' if you want them.

I missed it too. Anyone got it in the cache and willing to share? :)

Too bad I missed it. Did anyone save the pictures?

Any update to what happened????? Apple send a not-so-nicely worded message to the guy?

Did somebody save the pictures for further viewing?

I always thought Apple just took advantage of a tax-free zone around Cork airport, which no longer exists thanks to to EU single-market reforms

I can't believe how many people are surprised to see old macs!?! First of all Macs keep their value pretty darn well over a few years, especially if you don't need to run the latest and greatest everything. The older macs they have probably work perfect for the somewhat minimal software (compared to say an iMovie) that they run. Not to mention, the old if it ain't broke don't fix it saying.

The posters however I can't defend, I say put them on eBay.

Well - the link no longer works. The photos have apparently been removed. Figures....

I was looking through the pictures and was quite surprised to see some old iMac G3's and what I assume are old Power Macintosh 5200's. What would be the significance of keeping those (well the 5200s). I know people who are running 10.4 on some iMac G3s but wow!

As for the pink and green. Maybe it's like a protective covering of the shell, so the grubby factory workers don't tarnish the nice white plastic and aliminum base? Kind of like the stickers on new cars over the handles, doorframes, mirrors, etc.

Then again, I haven't the foggiest why they come in different colors. At first I thought it was primer, but primer for what? It's all PC on the outside.
