Question is whether or not the clear-green case front is textured. The real apple prototype clear cases are made before the texture is put on the molds. If the case is textured, it is certainly not a prototype (unless someone smarter than me says so. :-) ) On the other hand, if it was made half-unoffically by an Apple employee, wouldn't it be more valuable to sell it as what it is, a one off made by an apple employee in his spare time, in the apple plant, instead of dressing it up as a fake prototype? -Tyler -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
