Wired News reports on the iBox, a potential $250-$350 barebones Apple-compatible platform assembled from replacement motherboards. I’ve wanted a low-cost entry into OSX for some time now, but my 8500 doesn’t take it, I haven’t found an iMac cheap enough, and the G3/G4 towers are still a little too expensive for me.
The design of the box itself is very good. It almost looks like it was born at 1 Infinite Loop.
