Cubierta Mac 1984

For some reason as the technology advances we feel a strange need to cover our new vintage covers gadgets that seem so old. I can not explain the momentum nostalgic but I can say is that I love the irony of the idea.

Of all the possibilities of retro covers, maybe the iPhone are the most ingenious I have found from the Icade iPad does sound like your old arcade, to the V-Luxe iPad device that turns your old TV.

Of course those were my favorite so far, I've discovered the RetroCover, a cover for the iPad 2 made in the image of the Macintosh sold in 1984, with its characteristic floppy drive and display the famous "Hello" from MacPaint. Of course, in the front has a sticker with the inscription "Homade" that is unattractive and take a little overboard resemblance to the classic Mac.

This RetroCover is made of ABS thermoplastic housing cuts to the camera and other ports and buttons typical of the iPad. Although ultra-resistant, this plastic is super thin, only 2 millimeters thick, making it thin enough to go unnoticed in weight.

Surely the eternal love of Apple will want to have one. Personally I think a nice way to honor the beginning of this brand that has given us so much joy, to revive the unmatched evolution experienced by the area of ​​personal computers and remember the great Steve Jobs and his unparalleled contribution.

If you wish to purchase one of these covers can do so through the website USB Fever for just USD $ 36.99 (€ 28).

Who are encouraged to buy one?
