1000 Words: Pictures from this week’s Mac news

Exposé crazySometimes stories fall through the cracks here on MacUser, and sometimes there are things that just don’t merit an entire post on their own. Doesn’t mean we don’t want you to know about them. Hardly! What kind of friends would that make us? Really. So sit back and enjoy these images that were finding their way around the Interweb this week.

  • Flickr user telephoto46 posted this picture of his Exposéd desktop. Worse, most of them are messages from Mail—somebody introduce this guy to the preview pane. I’m pretty sure this many windows would grind my MacBook to a halt. Not to be outdone, Flickr user Benjamin Daines responded with his own Exposé screenshot.

  • Ever wondered what Bill Gates and Steve Jobs might look like were they to go to Japan, visit the hot springs, and turn into cartoons? Wonder no more. The Digg user who posted it claimed to have run into it outside the Tokyo Apple Store. Anyone care to translate?

  • Another Flickr user, Tim Simpson, caught this candid shot of none other than the Dalai Lama and what looks to be a PowerBook or MacBook Pro. Hardly surprising, when you think about it: when’s the last time you felt at peace using a Windows machine?

  • While we may have disproved the fake February 1st event, we’re hearing a persistent rumor that there might be an Apple event on Tuesday. I think this invitation is far more believable. We’re totally there.

  • You call yourself a Mac fan? Sorry, pal; Jeremy Mehrle is a Mac fan. Among the occupants of his swank pad: 74 Macs, with 28 of them comprising a Classic II Bar. Be sure to check out the whole set. Let’s see: I’ve owned six Macs in my day…so only about 68 to go.
