No, painted.
Cynic.

Saw a brilliant Photoshop job of an orange frog turning into
orange peel a couple of days ago.

Reminds me of a small craze last year where Mac users would set their
screen background to a photograph of whatever was behind the screen,
so that from the right angle the screen looked like an empty frame.

The best one turned out to be a cheat - he really had removed the LCD
panel from the screen.

I didn't think they ever looked all that good.

Why _Mac_ users in particular?
Are they particulatly herd-like fashion victims?
Ah, the answer is in the quesion, isn't it?

Good theory, but I think it's probably just because it came up on some
Mac newsgroup or website.

Anyway, I'm sure Microsoft Windows will have it soon.

The Linux version probably makes it look like a lot of burnt-out wiring
inside the case.

It's a pity they're all obviously Photoshopped onto the same base truck
picture.

Gosh, just tried one, it's pretty spooky the way cables pass through the
screen.
