tPhone For The Win!

Bagel Fridays are everybody’s favorite day here at Mac|Life HQ, when the line for the toaster stretches dozens long. So while we were surprised that none of our contestants this month went the bagel route—maybe it’s the hole in the middle—we were awed and amused by all of the culinary creations that came in response to our Art of Toast Challenge. “Anti-PC” was a popular theme (Apple ad guys, are you listening? This is a million-dollar idea here...), and we received several variations on the classic red slash “No” symbol, rendered in earthy brown toast tones—both white and wheat. And then there was the ToastBook, a re-creation of an Apple laptop in toast.
But it was the tPhone that won the hearts of the Mac|Life editors. Or maybe it was our stomachs. Either way, David Nichols’ faithful recreation of an iPhone Home screen in toast is the winner of our Art of Toast Challenge. For his outstanding accomplishments in Toaster Arts, we’re awarding David some awesome disc-burning software from Roxio, plus some coin to spend in the iTunes store.
David's Prize

Toast 9 Titanium ($99.99, www.roxio.com), plus a $50 iTunes gift card
