Goodbye Switch, hello MacBoy 7
Some of my favorite photoshopped devices by @NanoRaptor on Twitter. www.twitter.com/NanoRaptor
Oh boy, first time on the front page, the weather is nice up here. All the credit to NanoRaptor for the incredible photoshop skills.

Fun Fact: The Xerox Alto prototype PC had a portrait layout 8.5x11 screen so it represented a piece of paper.

Two vertical screens would be so sick. I have one vertical screen at work and at home

#5 finally, a system I can use Plan 9 on!

Mostvare these are dumb funny. But the newton message pad looks actually great in the era of PalmOS.
Hiboredimdad
Op...I dont like these.

Why.......do I hear vaporwave playing in my head as I look at these?

Maybe you weren't around when synthesizers were all the rage.

I love cursed tech!! More posts like these! LOOK AT OUR RIDICULOUSNESS

I still own #7. Worthless and its passive matrix screen is almost impossible to view but I keep it. For no good reason.
Zentigger
I would buy two of those #3 monitors. In a heartbeat.

I hope you're proud of yourself. I twit he'd at every single one.

Macboy 7, sounds like a middle class rapper.

Is that kitty bobo is #3? I thought I imagined that show
cetrarojas
Yea kitty bobo! It was part of Cartoon Networks pick a cartoon back in 2001. It lost to codename: kids next door. Nostalgia!
aurora994
Where’s the Zune?
circlebreaker
Asking the important questions right here.
billymaditsdone
...I thought these were real designs for a second there.
dlshark
#11 I used to have a similar watch face on my Pebble. I don’t see a problem here
N3onKnight
Lol is that Kitty Bobo?
WonderfunkJones
Oh thank God. I couldn't dream of operating nightmares like these.
CardboardEmpress
I could swear I used something like #1 for DTP years ago.
UncleMeaty
Macintosh Portrait Display was a real thing. It wasn't in colour though.

ah "photoshopped"... for a minute I was "how did i not know about all these treasures"

I had a Newton, back in the day! Super fun tech.

Ah, Newton:

#12 this is Photoshopped right?

nope just cursed

No, the iiiiMaaaac 420 was released on March 69th, 2001

And the rest is real?

pdh99
That explains why I've never seen them
cmovbe
Which ones are not?
nihiltres
AFAICT none, but I've never actually encountered a Newton (though they did exist in some form). Some are much more 'shopped than others.
capngoat
I think the Newton isn't.
vowofloudness
The only thing fake about that one (#6) is the color.
AuralOcean
Isn't #2 real? Or am I being bamboozled again.
zachory
None are real

Tektronix vector displays, I think.
CowboyRooster
Cheers for that, really. :)
NothingEven
So sad that these are photoshopped. I wanted them to be real.
DavidGodec
some of them are....
Petemccabe
I had a Full page display a long time ago, it was made by radius not Apple but it definitely existed.
8166uy
The ultrawide laptop didn't have to be shopped, Toshiba made one at some point.
GoodTofuFriday
#3 is real
Dendaria
Portrait monitors are real, I've seen them in use -- one of my colleagues had one.
WhiteCollarOfficeJobs
I'm fairly certain the Newton MessagePad #6 isn't photoshopped. I've seen similar models of the device before.
ZanyZapper
Did they make beige ones tho? I thought they were all black. I had a MessagePad 100 and wanted a 2000 but don't recall any that color.
koboldesq
Such disrespect to include the Newton in this dump. It wasn't a great device, but it (and various Palm products) were ahead of their time.
nihiltres
I'm pretty sure the actual computers in #1 and #2 aren't shopped, just the displays, but it's been a looong time.
IHateCakeDays
I’m sure I’ve seen first one for text editing.
ParryLost
I also don't think those are shopped at all. Vertical displays like that were used for publishing, IIRC. Helped you see how a page laid out
onlyhalfghost
the stuff displayed on the monitor is probably shopped in the first one.
ParryLost
Very likely, if only because most of those monitors were grayscale, I think. :P If they found a colour one, though, I wouldn't be shocked →
ParryLost
→if someone sufficiently techy and nerdy found some way to hook it up to an iPhone for a laugh. :P
Kaboom36
IIRC the displays, or something like them were a real thing but it's been a while for me too
freezingpilot
Pretty Sure Microsoft has built these. I mean, do you remember Zune?
NothingEven
No actually I was too young at the time of release.
Odmanra
So you could doom on them?!
onlyhalfghost
most of these appear to be running Apple OSes, so back when Doom was current, no.
Odmanra
People have play doom on a pregnancy test! So they could easily figure out on these
onlyhalfghost
now, yes, when Doom was current and the source code closed, there was no Macintosh version.
TheThingNoNotThatOne
Yeah, I'd be down for a portrait monitor. I do a lot of writing and reading online for my job. There's also coders who'd probably buy
Aldjinn
I hate to be that guy, but that's useless because they already made better then just a portrait monitor. Monitors that tilt 90°. 1/2
Aldjinn
All you have to do is tilt it in your windows settings as well, and you're set ! 2/2
Aldjinn
Also, I meant "than"... Not then
TheThingNoNotThatOne
I was thinking for a laptop. Also, I'm terminally stupid.
physicsisalwaysrelevant
I already run 3 monitors for teaching, but really need a 4th so I can have 2 portrait monitors for coding.
CaptainRaiN
Windows has a build in feature to rotate screen(even hot keys). Just buy a Display you can flip.
Blank1612
Just buy one you can flip 90 degrees?
TheThingNoNotThatOne
I'm thinking for a laptop. And also I'm stupid
Blank1612
Ah right, can't really imagine how you would make that convenient as a laptop, but I get your point
TheThingNoNotThatOne
Most people get that I'm stupid after a couple sentences too.
