The only one I liked is the HAL sticker.

Hmm... Does the current crop of Apple laptops have a glowing Apple logo? ... and is there a HAL sticker that has a red lens in the middle that would glow red if I put it over the Apple logo?

No glowing logo since before the USB-C/touchbar generation, about 10 years ago

When Apple was making a comeback from being all but dead, the logo was a quick way to identify other members of your tribe. And you could walk into a coffee shop and get an instant tally of how Apple was doing. It was really precarious for a time, and then after some months it became reassuring and then some more months and you could stop worrying altogether.

Hard to believe that was ever the case!

I remember seeing this photo all over the internet, usually with “Think different” caption. Thanks for the reminder!
