The Curved iMac is a mock-up conceived by designer Nuno Texeira. This mock-up looks simple but impossibly elegant. Yanko Design says.."Designer Nuno Teixeira believes every computer should be two faced and with more curves...Taking a cue from the 1950's CINERAMA wrap-around movie theatre screens, this iMac iMock-up features a giant curved screen(for better orientation to the natural curvature of the human eye) and a second built in LCD screen on the back".
Mr. Texeira's Curved iMac seems like a very well articulated design. It is beautiful, appealing, sexy, totally hip and cutting edge. Will we see something resembling that soon from Apple or any of the other industry leaders? One can only hope so.
