Apple has regular users that just find the platform more convenient then they have super fans. These are people that eat Apple, think Apple and dream Apple. They are the ultimate fanboys. One such fanboy is designer Tomislav Zvonaric who created the work of art you see above. It is his homage to Apple. In true Apple fashion, he has spent considerable time working out even the smallest of details (look at the spoon or the leaf handle).

The saucer isn't just a regular plate. It is a USB connected hotplate to keep your beverage nice and toasty while you use your Mac to create your next masterpiece.

Unfortunately this is still a concept and it's doubtful Apple would ever approve this product.

All GMAIL users to get redesigned compose window

technologyEdward Kiledjian

Google let it be known (on its Google+ page of course) that henceforth it shall roll out its redesigned compose window to all Gmail users. This new design makes it posible to compose multiple messages at once and multi-task more easily.

Although this was rolled out in March, users were allowed to opt-out and go back to the old full screen compose window. This will no longer be an option.
