Apple didn't make it, but it's still pretty cool.

I'm sure apple's version will be something like this: http://homepage.mac.com/flyermoney/aorta/ipad_01.html

And lets not forget the Slashdot article: http://apple.slashdot.org/apple/02/08/27/1445232.shtml?tid=164

That guy deserves some props for creativity. I'm not a Mac fan, but I do admire creativity like that. He obviously tore apart an old iMac, cut the case, managed to get the motherboard to work in his new case, etc.

I bet he spent some time on that. ;P

Goddamn. Portable classic Mac OS with wireless ethernet on an on-screen keyboard. I've seen few things cooler than this.

I'd love to see Apple's take on this. I wonder if this guy is thinking about putting OS X on it?

It is suspicious that apple would add the Inkwell hand-writing recognizer despite the fact that few of their desktop users will use it...
