Macintosh 128K Replica – Wood, Golden and Luxury!

Macintosh

The Golden Apple is a luxurious one-off-a-kind replica and a tribute to the 128k. It’s handmade from American walnut instead of molded from plastics, but the dimensions are kept unaltered. And just as the original, the replica has the built in handle for lifting.

The Golden Apple does look like a classic Macintosh, but in reality has an up-to-date Mac Mini mounted inside, and the floppy drive has been replaced with a DVD reader. The custom made mechanical keyboard uses blue cherry MX tactile switches which are covered by gold plated key caps made from zink. A wireless mouse made from walnut completes the unique setup.

As we can see on the video above, it is a fine piece of art for sure. The model is presented at the Love Hulten website and it is not available for sale, at least for now. Also there is no price set but we bet it is going to be very expensive!
