After announcing the Power Mac G4 Cube at the Macworld Expo in July 2000, Apple issued a press release describing the innovative computer: 'Apple today introduced the Power Mac G4 Cube, an entirely new class of computer that delivers the performance of a Power Mac G4 in an eight inch cube suspended in a stunning crystal-clear enclosure…'The G4 Cube is simply the coolest computer ever,' said Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO. 'An entirely new class of computer, it marries the Pentium-crushing performance of the Power Mac G4 with the miniaturization, silent operation and elegant desktop design of the iMac. It is an amazing engineering and design feat, and we’re thrilled to finally unveil it to our customers.'' The machine's iconic design has earned it a place in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.
