This can only be described as perfectly amazing. Made out of 2,588 Lego bricks, what seems to be just an ordinary computer within an awesome make-shift Apple computer case is actually two Macs in one! Yes, that’s right, not one, but two!
The case contains one full PC running Mac OS X and the components from a Mac Mini. The Hackintosh, as the Apple community so endearingly calls unauthorized PC hardware running OS X, contains a Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4Ghz CPU, while the Mac mini is a Core Duo 1.66Ghz.
To top it off, the case mod includes a mini figurine of Steve Jobs’ signature stance. I sure hope Lego catches on and decides to release a “Pirates of the Silicon Valley” Lego set. Imagine the possibilities.
