Developed during the early years of Steve Jobs’ return to Apple and designed under Jony Ive, it helped establish a new design language for the company—and influenced consumer technology well beyond computers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen came the colours. Lots of them. as Apple famously played with the idea of iMac “flavours,” introducing a succession of colourful finishes that made the machines feel more like personal objects than office equipment. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRetro iMac G3—In 9 Flavours brings nine of these colourful computers together in one piece.
