Retro electronics

I took possession of an old Power Macintosh G3 today for a little project I have in mind, and as part of getting it up and running I took apart an old Apple keyboard for cleaning. The printed circuit board that the keyboard is based around was very crude, but my eye was drawn to the old-style Apple logo that was etched onto the surface. It looked really smart and retro, so I tried to take a photo of it. There's more glare than I'd like, but the shallow angle the light's at does show up the embossed nature of the logo. Those of a particularly geeky bent can download a 1600x1200 version here for use as a desktop background.
In other news, the young lady had a huge vat of steaming soup with chick peas, spinach and chorizo ready for me when I came home from work. I intend to campaign for teachers to get even longer summer holidays.
