By the next showing Ive had refined the playful model.
在下一次展示之前，艾弗又完善了這個模型。
This time Jobs, with his binary view of the world, raved that he loved it.
這一次，喬布斯帶著他那“不是杰作就是狗屎”的評判標準喊著說他喜歡。
He took the foam prototype and began carrying it around the headquarters with him,
他帶著泡沫模型在總部到處走，
showing it in confidence to trusted lieutenants and board members.
充滿信心地向他信賴的中層和董事會成員們展示。
In its ads Apple was celebrating the glories of being able to think different,
蘋果公司一直在廣告中宣傳自身所做的一切都“非同凡想”。
yet until now nothing had been proposed that was much different from existing computers.
然而直到那時，也沒有人提出過什么東西讓蘋果計算機區別于市面上的其他計算機。
Finally, Jobs had something new. The plastic casing that Ive and Coster proposed was sea-green blue,
這一次，喬布斯終于有了新玩意兒。艾弗和柯斯特提出要把機箱塑料外殼設計成海藍色，
later named bondi blue after the color of the water at a beach in Australia,
之后這種顏色被命名為“邦迪藍”，靈感來自澳大利亞的邦迪海灘，
and it was translucent so that you could see through to the inside of the machine.
而且外殼是半透明的，你可以看到機器內部。
"We were trying to convey a sense of the computer being changeable based on your needs, to be like a chameleon," said Ive.
“我們想要傳遞一種感覺，就是計算機能夠根據我們的需求而改變，就像變色龍那樣。”艾弗說，
"That's why we liked the translucency. You could have color but it felt so unstatic. And it came across as cheeky."
“這就是我們喜歡半透明的原因。雖然有固定的顏色，卻又不呆板，可以一眼看到里面，有種調皮的感覺?！?/p>
