        I… I know they made colorful iMacs… But… What was the marketing idea behind this ad?

        What did they mean by “No artificial colors” for a computer…?

          The OG colors were all food based.

          Tangerine, grape, lime, strawberry, and blueberry

          The five colors were fruit-themed: blueberry, grape, tangerine, lime and strawberry.

          I would assume it’s a joke on when they say no artificial colors in food, because… apple?

          Familiar byline from food marketing? I seem to recall a lot of fear mongering related to food coloring at the time (most of which turned out to be overblown) making that a cutesy/tongue-in-cheek headline coming from a tech company.

              Ah I forgot the fruit schema for the colors! lol

              Honestly some of the jelly style molded acrylic designs from that era were pretty sick, even by today’s standards. I remember the G4 cube with matching Harmon Kardon Soundsticks and display/keyboard/mouse as a standout example of a short lived concept that might still appear futuristic today.

                Especially compared to contemporary computers. I mean late nineties, everything was beige beige beige, MAYBE black.

              this was Apple’s peak for design. I can’t stand apple products but if they made an iphone in this colorway I would be tempted.

      More specifically, the glow used in all the Apple Intelligence enabled UIs. Siri, summarizing, rewriting, etc. It all has that plasma glowy effect.

      I imagine this is referencing Apple Intelligence in general. The rainbow glow is used for all of the interface elements using Apple Intelligence.

    If it’s in reference to a proper microLED display, then I’m excited.

        I’m guessing it a derogatory comment about LGBTQ people and Tim Cook.

            you say “straight to that” as if there is some other obvious interpretation. it was simply my best guess based on the top commenters refusal to explain further.

              The only time I have heard the term its referring to a federal agent.
