LEGO + Apple + Pixar = LEGO iMac G4 Junior.

@tveskovSo one of my all-time favorite Macs (I've had a
few) is the
iMac G4. Recently I got my hands on a 7" photoframe which happened to look somewhat like the screen from the good ol' iMac, so I wanted to try and create a mini-version using LEGO elements;
There is no Apple hardware inside (for now), but the screen can display videos, images and TV (there's a digital TV tuner built in). I almost managed to get a motorized CD-tray in there, but most of the space in the bottom was needed for weight-elements. The screen is rather heavy so there is a lot of stress on the swivelling arm, but it worked out quite well.
The Pixar inspiration comes from
Luxo Jr (still well worth watching 23 years after it was made). So there you have it; Three of the greatest companies in world rolled into one (with a bit of
LEGO Fail Whale thrown in for good measure).

Thanks for the comments.
The Mac desktop pictures are just screenshots viewed via the memorycard-reader. The photoframe is a cheap no-name product, but the TV-tuner works really well for casual news viewing etc.

I would love a online picture frame that did nothing else than slideshow the Big Picture feed...

The likelihood is that there's hardware inside that frame equivalent in power to that inside early Macs - could make it a functional system.

I wish not agree on it. I regard as warm-hearted post. Particularly the designation attracted me to study the whole story.
