I applied to Apple computer in 2000 after college and includes designs as part of my resume.

I sent an exact sketch and thermo/architecture design for this exact machine in a 22'' model which could be folded, slipped into a bag and marketed as a "mobile studio".

Well, I should be proud of them theiving my idea (not the first time in tech) however it only took 8 years to become reality. I also should have copyrighted, patented, or registered the design however that process (and getting anything from it) is as expensive as fuck...but seems to have worked for the guy who did the original iPod wheel.

BTW, apple sucks.

He is an idea theif. He throws shit to his engineers who are no doubt mostly from japan and tells them to build this new shit they got from some white person for free. Jobs may you burn in hell for all of eternity. Speaking of jobs is it too hard to hire people in the usa to make ipods instead of china? The billions go to the billionaires instead of middle class living wages to americans. Fuck you sj. I hope you die a horrible death faggot.

Isn't every idea "stolen" or derived from somewhere else? Just because you or someone else couldn't market it doesn't make the person who can a thief. There's more to a successful business than just "coming up with ideas."

Also, isn't 80% of everything in the U.S. made in China? Why the fuck are you singling out Apple?

Retard.

I do have the drawing book, but it's tucked away in storage with all my old shit back home, and even then the drawings are way too large for my little "legal" sized HP scanner. The toughest design issue was cooling the chips and powerPC or similar processsor..which i would have done with a fan-less copper heatsink and vents on the back (but increasing the cost). It had/has most everything on-board including video (ati chipset) and a tray based CD-ROM. I thought it was cool, guess it was ahead of it's time and could have sold a 3k computer to the iMac/iBook crowd as an all-in-one design studio with power.

I also kept my idea journal from back then, living in California and thinking up tech ideas right after the bust. I actually coded one to take spoken speech recognition, translate it into spanish based on standard string for string translation, and then output the live video (<> 3 second delay) via the old netmeeting api to people on the other end. That was done in VB6 and with the MS speech/netmeeting api.

Lots of manual hard coding but it did work..I think a few companies including IBM later came out with some of this stuff and use it in Iraq/Afgan for translations (without the video of course). IBM even put out a "concept" voice conference TV commercial around that time. I filed the provisional for application patent on it in 99 but never filed a full app. I thought..hey Al Gore's gonna win, international tech and business is gonna boom...in reality the only boom was in the middle east thanks to Raytheon and Lockheed Martin.

You're a fucking idiot. That iMac is just an aluminium version of the 2004 white plastic iMac. The all-in-one design was introduced with the original CRT iMac in 1998. What a goddamned stupid mincing faggot you are.
