The Landscape PowerBook G4 joined the G4 Cube as a one-off classic in the early 2000s. Designed to use while standing, well-kept examples fetch high prices — if you can manage to separate one from their increasingly devoted owners.

That mesh... and stainless steel. and glass? This looks like it fits right between the pure plastic of the G4s and the Aluminium G5s, but is a thing of its own and beautiful.

Please do not put these things on your keys, it's actually not ~funny and silly XD~ to imagine these things being accidentally found by someone who doesn't know it's a joke. No, the fact that it looks 3d printed is not good enough to insure it's never mistaken for a real hazard
