These apples with Apple logos and products are the handiwork of a Japanese Apple fan (more pics on the site) who covered Fuji apples with custom Apple stickers, then waited a month them for to mature.
For the finishing touch, they added a leaf in afterwards in graphics. Wonder if these would be ripe for copyright infringement…

The sexiest all-in-one computer has long been the iMac, and last year’s 24-inch model was a beauty. But oh my Lord, the new 27-inch machine induces crazy lust. Look at the size of that screen!

I’m a multitouch junkie. Everything I touch has to be multitouch, or it just ain’t right. I can no longer use a regular laptop trackpad — there’s no two-finger scrolling. It irritates me no end if I can’t point, scroll and double-click with my fingers.
How long will it take then, to get used to the [...]
I recently came across orbit, which is one of the best navigation options available for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

As I noted a couple of weeks ago, I want a way to view all my iPhone apps on my iPhone, not just through iTunes. I review lots of iPhone apps and am a keen iPhone gamer. When apps vanish into the void, I forget they’re there (and so Spotlight isn’t much use), and it’s [...]
Our recent preview of Lightroom 3 – Beta has generated a lot of buzz about the future of digital processing. One of the questions that keeps coming up is: how do I migrate from Aperture to Lightroom?

What’s this obsession with copyright infringement?! Ooh, look there’s a logo with a green apple in it! Wonder if Apple will sue them? There’s a guys growing apples in his backyard! Maybe they’ll come over and chop his tree down. Or better yet, break all his fingers for being creative. That’ll teach him.

Interesting and clever, a completely natural way to create the logos on the fruit’s surface. If Apple had one or two clever people over there in Cooperteeeno they’d contact this person and get permission for the idea and use these ‘logo’d’ apples at the next Apple Computer event.
And on a different note, how would one do this for Microsoft? Are there naturally occurring windows out there?
