Baby Mac, part two

The Baby Mac meant a lot to Hartmut Esslinger, who says in "Design Forward" that it stands as his "best design never to be produced." The designer pushed for cutting-edge features: "We worked with Toshiba on a new cathode ray tube (CRT) front in order to avoid the cheap look of a regular CRT screen, and we also looked at flat-screen technology. To make the Mac as small as possible, we experimented with wireless keyboard and mouse connections."
