Signatures From Original Mac Etched Onto PowerBook

Australian Simon Clement had the back of his PowerBook laser etched with the specs of the original Mac and the signatures from inside the case.

The case of the original Macintosh was embossed on the inside with the names of the development team, led by Steve Jobs. “Artists sign their work,” he said at the time.

Here’s the details. And a Flickr set.

Neat! I’ve got an old Mac 512k case in my garage. It’s been cleared out so you can see the signatures of the developers. Intertesting how they put so much detail into a part of the computer you can’t even see without taking out the screen.
Nice new site by the way!
