Oh, the humanity
Posted by Sandy
Imagine someone gives you a Porsche as a gift. You love the sleek design and the shiny color, but you were really hoping to get a Ford pickup truck.
Would you:
a) sell the Porsche and buy a new Ford, or
b) rip the engine out of the Porsche, and put in a Ford engine?
"Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure G5 is a great computer, but I wanted a Dell for Christmas. I don’t have any programs for Apple and didn’t feel like waiting for them. I thought about selling it, but my parents would be upset with me. After all, this was a very expensive gift and it meant a lot to them to give to me."
I can only assume that
this is an elaborate hoax aimed at stopping the hearts of Mac users around the world. If this young man actually tore the guts out of a shiny new
Power Mac G5 and used the empty
case to house a custom-built Windows-based PC, his parents should be more than a little angry at the money he wasted.
See the horror here. If the link gets busy, try these before and after pictures.
Update: I was right -- this was a hoax. The G5 enclosure used in the pictures was a spare, not ripped from a working Power Mac.
