The server is made of an iBook, Powermac G4 and top of a G4 Cube.

Wicked, I wonder if I could build one and how much it would cost!

You may believe is real after retouching it for 4 hours.

More LED's...and perhaps a small iPod-esque style display for stuff like temp, load and status? And, one demo unit shipped directly to me please ;-)

It's a fake. If you have a laptop, you can tilt the screen back and see that the grille has a box (looks blue) around it. Would be nice if it were real though.

It would need a lot more RAM to be a even lowend server.

On my PBG4 and my 22" at a tilt I do not notice the 'blue' line.

Its just a piece of fun, do not take it to heart as a threat.

I think Apple would make it more like the current G4 casing. The four handels would be flat on one side to slide in, and the casing would be grey and white on the top.

Otherwise it would be cool to have one!

if people don't know this without you saying that, they should be shot.

It is there. You are just not tilting the monitor correctly. It's NOT obvious at all unless you are looking for it. Also there is one brightness setting (on an ibook running os X.1.1), the fourth brightness unit makes it easier to see, but you don't have to tilt is very far at that setting.
