Just recently, an extremely rare prototype of the 128k Mac with a Twiggy drive has surfaced on eBay
When the first Macintosh model (actually titled the “Macintosh 128K”) hit the market in 1984, it featured a 3.5-inch floppy disk drive built by Sony, the industry standard at the time. Originally, Apple had planned to include its own proprietary Twiggy 5.25-inch drive, but engineers deemed it unreliable, despite its larger storage capabilities (860 KB to Sony’s 400KB floppys).
Designer Maxime de Keiser and Les Forges MDK studio worked on the next iconic design and present the iPhone 4 Legacy. Once again they pay tribute to an all time classic, in this case the original Macintosh 128k computer from the 80s. The original beige color of the computer and multicolor Apple logo are used on the iPhone 4 case. Hopefully the case will actually be produced.
