I win the award for dumbest question of the week but here it goes:

Is there a national chain that carries a trash can like that in OS X. I've seen setups with them on spymac and have looked all fricken over for one. I figured this was the best forum since it really has nothing to do with computers.

Thanks

Check wal-mart if there's one by you...i beleive that is where mine was purchased...its about 18 inches high, and made of aluminum with a perforated pattern albeit smaller than the Trash icons. I think i've also seen them for sale at target

I know Target sells a brand of mesh Trash Cans and other mesh office products, I own them myself. I honestly didn't buy them because of Trash Can, but the relation was pointed out to me afterwards...heh.

i'm told Ikea has something similar...

the trick is to find a wide mesh weave... most are very tight or fine meshes...

and it's not a stupid question, it's a very nice looking trash can...

I have a grey metal can from Ikea that matches the TiBook very nicely:D

It's almost the same proportions as the trash can.

this would also set you for coordinating with the G5 if by chance you plan on getting one....

Of course with the new look of the Trash in Panther we're all going to have to upgrade our wastebaskets.

I can see where that trash can could become quite annoying. All that would need to do is to have it talk! :p
