Similar to the W3 Charging Stand for Apple Watch, the AW3 Case is themed after Apple's original Macintosh computer, complete with "hello" on the monitor.

The AW3 Case is compatible with all models of the AirPods, has a small cutout to make the front LED visible on the second generation, and fully supports Qi wireless charging.

It's made of an impact-resistant silicone that's flexible, and includes a cutout on the bottom for wired Lightning charging.

This made me think: For the 40th anniversary of the mac (in 2023), wouldn’t it be great if apple came out with a retina desktop mac with the same form factor as the original mac. Use the extra space that once held the crt display and use it for upgradable options: SSD, ram the whole thing.

I’d buy a few of those 😁

I would buy it if it could dual boot from Mac OSX to Classic Mac OS, or have a Classic Mac emulator within OSX to run all the old Mac games and Applications.

Considering they just killed off a ton of classic 32 bit Mac OS X applications with Catalina, I'm not getting my hopes up on that one though.

I'm sure that would be highly profitable for them.

What an utterly pointless thing. We've reached peak consumerism folks.
