It never fails. You try something slightly off the curve, and suddenly people are trying to find hairline fractures in your corporate fuselage. Sound familiar? This article seems to think that the Apple’s new G4 Cube owes its existance to Steve Jobs in an attempt to relive the past. I’m sure that Stevie Wonderful holds a special place in his heart for the original NeXT Cube, but the anti-beige form factor was not what caused NeXT to abandon its hardware. Maybe since the new Apple machine is essentially self-cooling, its inspiration is related more to the ice cubes in your freezer than to the infamous matte black box.
