[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1150108, member: 56379"] Well they sort of did with the newest iMacs...except you don't get the color & the shape. If you had the shape of the old CRT iMacs...then you wouldn't have the benefit of thinness & lightness of LCD displays. Yes the new iMac's could have colored (powder coated) colors like the old G3 iMacs...but many people like the "cleanness" and simplicity of the bare aluminum. But even if the new iMacs were colored...the color wouldn't have the same impact/eye appeal as the old G3 iMacs due to the shape. And geez...if you wanted the shape of the old G3 iMacs on a new iMac with an LCD display...just think how BIG the housing would be with one of the 27" iMacs...YIKES!;) - Nick [/QUOTE]
