MacBook’s iSight unknowingly photographs Apple repair center (Digital Photography News)

Here’s one that doesn’t happen very often ever. As bad as we rumor mongers pry and pry to get inside of ole Steve’s brain, sneaking a peek behind closed Cupertino doors is all but impossible (even for Mr. Dell). Nevertheless, a clever Mac user got numerous undercover photographs of the inside workings at an Apple authorized repair center (Flextronics International) in Tennessee. Rather than pulling out any MacGyver-based stunts, he simply wrote a script — dubbed Walking Study — that instructed his MacBook to snap a photo (and upload it to his Flickr account) with the built-in iSight each time it awoke from sleep. When his dear ‘Book got sent out for repair, however, the fully-functional webcam continued to perform perfectly within the secretive confines, giving everyone a glimpse of an incredibly average looking warehouse. Although the stealthy camera didn’t snap any shots of (potentially) forthcoming iPhone or widescreen iPod prototypes, we’ve got to give credit where it’s due — Toby Mckeys got closer to the Apple’s core than we’ve seen in quite some time.
