Sold on eBay for just under $5000. Yes, that is a Color Classic prototype with clear acrylic case. It is quite possibly the coolest Mac EVER. In all existence. Period. Had I known about it, I would have sold a kidney to get it.

Wow! Shame the keyboard and mouse are not also clear... But it's beautiful! :b&w:

I'm not a big fan of the CC, but that's just awesome! 8-o

This is not a conquest!

Yeah...while its a great find...unless you actually bought the machine yourself, its not really a Conquest, and therefore doesn't really belong in this forum.

(of course, if I am mistaken and you actually own this baby, please by all means feel free to PM me and tell me so I can move it back to Conquests!)

That thing is begging for some CCFL/LED action.

I just imagine Johny Ive looking at these prototype models saying, "hm ... what, if we add some color to this plastic?"

Just....for the love of God.....no.

Oh come on - look at it, sitting there, all transparent like. Just gagging for a big purple CCFL shining up from the back somewheres. There's not a jury in the world....

Whatever floats your boat...personally I can't stand computers stuffed full of lights and stuff...and I don't think a clear CC with lights in it would change that!

It has great potential for a Macquarium!
