‘Nothing happens unless first a dream’, and this ‘power’ to dream is what drives us to conquer the impossible. Proving the fact, this ravishing future iMac, conceptualized by illustrator and designer Adam Benton, stands apart, with respect to its both design and functionality and is truly an eyefreezer.
The full wireless system features a 30′ LCD screen that is transparent when not in use. We are not sure whether it’s touch-sensitive or not, however, not to mention it must be. The keyboard too is transparent and is ergonomically designed for the kill embellished with light sensitive illuminated keys.

Eye-freezing future iMac concept

Very, Very nice. If something like this is actually ever produced I would be first in line. SWEET>
[...How sweet would it be to have something like that standing around in your office. I would never touch it, excpet turning it on and off ... over and over again. [via][via] Ad:ClubMac for Everything Mac! Tags: Apple, Imac, Concept,]

That is the coolest computer I have ever seen! I would love for something like that to come out, but it would probably cost more than I could ever imagine.
I’ll take two please!
I don’t think most people would be thrilled with a computer on which everything on-screen is visible (in reverse) to anyone who walks by. Beautiful but completely impractical.
A touch screen would get pretty grimy after a while.
>We are not sure whether it’s touch-sensitive or not...
Uh, hello... IT’S NOT REAL!
For such a ”future” design, it is basically just a current iMac with a clear screen. Apple has never released a major upgrade that looks at all similar to it’s past machines, and likely never will. Looks nice, though. Nice render, I mean.
Also, It looks nice when it is off, but it is effectively useless when it is on. (i.e. what happens when light comes from behind? the image gets totally washed out)
Meh.
If it was Dell, I’d be all OMFGTHATISSOAWESOMEROFLMA()ICOULDPWNMYFRIENDSWITH 1NV1SI|3|_EN3SS.
But, what happens when you need to see something and you can’t?

But.... does the mouse have one or two buttons?
hey, that’d be great if i could get one for windows. i’m not a mac man.
Hey Haemerd, Macs do run windows. Geesh, haven’t you seen the commericials?
Man, this is great! Wish I had one!
WONDERFUL, Very inspiring. Keep it up MAC boys!
OMG!!!..i nearly wet my pants....thats awsome!!!!!
I PEED MY PANTS!!!! I WANT ONE!!!!
I’m sorry. I couldn’t take my eyes off of these images! OUT OF THIS WORLD!

Are you crazy? Since when does Dell come up with inspiring designs for their computers?
xD
I love the keyboard. :)
3ds max is a wonderful tool.
I wonder if its as indestructable as other macs. i would get this moniter, but not a mac compy as they are ineficient for gaming due to incompatability with other needed components. still a good concept, and i imagine the would figure out how to make it a one way screen
I love this design! I was formerly a mac user, but I switched to linux because I felt it’s just as good and i can build a more powerful machine for less cash. If I did have the money (and, duh, if it existed) I would buy one to have along my linux box!
Yes, of course it looks nice. How many people would really like a computer, however, that can’t accept additional keyboards, mice, speakers, monitors, disk drives, disks, USB adaptors, or internet?
That does look pretty sweet.
[...The next iMac? I don't think so but who can blame them for dreaming.

Well.. nice. But this being a future concept, why the FUCK is the keyboard still the same BULLSHIT layout from 1800!?!? You’d think in the future there are keyboard with a more efficient design approach than getting all keys on aboard so the hammers won’t lock. (if you don’t know what the fuck i am talking about, look up the history of keyboards in wikipedia!)
Everything else is fantastic. And awesome.
Oh, and the mouse probably has 23 buttons, 8 scrollwheels, 4 sliders, 6 rocker switches, etc. Less is more... like the mac mouse, one button + scrollwheel is all i want.
uh, ergonomic keyboard? hello? is anyone seeing the same totally non-ergonomic keyboard as i? its curving the exact opposite way that your arms/wrist lay naturally. can you guys imagine having to type with squeezing your wrists inward against each other? ouch.
other than that, nifty monitor concept
very nice and slick design. One problem is the keyboard. This is the complete opposite of an ergonomic keyboard. Have a look at the Microsoft natural keyboard or any other real ergonomic keyboard.

from what i understand, this wasn’t an exercise in ergonomic design guys...the idea was to make darn cool looking mac and render.
If this computer was real, it would be the coolest computer out right now. Maybe it doesn’t have a burner because by the time technology like this comes around, disc media will be obsolete. Maybe the keyboard isn’t ergonomic because that wasn’t the artist’s focus?
I think people who just find something bad to say about coolest stuff are the dumbest people alive.
”Hey! Look at me! I can find all the things wrong with this concept because I’m way smarter than the person who came up with this idea!”
Shut the fuck up. The concept is cool as hell. If you can’t acknowledge that.... shut up.
If it was a DELL, should there be smoke coming out the back?
Yoooo...though I’m not a big fan of iMac got rid of mine for a G4, soon to get a G5....however...I won’t lie...I would not mind having that sexy thing sitting on my desk....nice
This is the most chocolaty thing ever!@!!!!
The DVD drive is at the worst possible location, the same goes for I/O and power switch. No adjustable screen height or angle. Not surround sound yet...
So I’m convinced, it is a real Mac prototype! :D
the clear base ( while very pretty ) looks like it really wants to tip the whole thing over on it’s back...
Um design impressionante, esperamos as melhores coisas da Apple....parabens...
e se precisar de pessoas para testar estamos aqui!!!
hehehhehhe......

Do you not see the holes in the back for USB and port access?!?!
Muito legal.
a trasparencia é o que da um toque especial.
Very nice!!
My Favrite Steve & His Boys Have Done it again....
Wat an APPLE
Very Very Nice....!!!
Now, if I could place a webcam behind the screen, virtual eye contact could be realized. There was talk of developing someday a pixel cam in the middle of the screen.
Deffinitely the coolest thing i’ve seen in a while, although the technology for it has been around for a bit now.
I just am not the type that would buy it for the looks, unless it offers something ”old school” flat panels cannot and would not be able to provide.
I am visually amazed.
I rly dont like mac all that much, but i wont get in to that here...this is aweful nifty i woud probably get sick of it after a while but this would be amazing to show off =)
Very cool!!! But I think that you should use your talent make make something that will bennefit solely you and not endorse the Multimillionaries at Apple. Maybe you could give us another choice besides of what is out there. Great job!!!
Thats the slickest design I have ever seen...
When does that released to the public
very cool but if this is a future Imac then skip usb and plugs like that. Also the keyboard, skip it, it’ll probably be that red lazier thing that some person came up with a few years back. also as cool as the see through monitor is be realistic, this is prob 2-5 years off by then it’ll be in its first stage of 2d holographic displays 2-4 more years it’ll be true 3d graphics also the speakers could be right on the computer its self and as cool as the disc drive is they already have solid state memory out and its getting cheaper (2 GB SD memory card under $120) in all this seems like a really cool concept but remember its a concept, don’t forget to think out side the box. PS what do you think the Ipod would look like in 5 years?? - nasa_dell@hotmail.com if you have any questions or anything (no spam please)
Very nice and innovative design concept. Technologically Robust!
