On my way to/from work I walk past an art gallery with a large picture window. When the art gallery is open an indigo blue iMac sits in the corner in full view of passers-by. it looks cool and lends the gallery a certain air of sophistication!

When the gallary is closed, the iMac is 'hidden' from view by a 'shield' made from a cardboard box - presumably an attempt to make the corner look unattractive and unobtrusive and to deter smash and grab thieves. The delicious irony is that the cardboard packaging was used originally to ship a Dell PC and has "Dell' in huge letters written all over it B-} Even though I see this every day I leave work I can't help but chuckle at the sheer absurdity of it all!
