Is it just me, or do the pictures on chapter 3 and 4 look like prototypes with a 5.25” drive?

Those particular pictures don’t look like that to me, but some prototype Macintosh machines had a Twiggy drive. There’s a great story about how the mac designers had to hide their negotiations with Sony from Steve Jobs so he wouldn’t get mad on folklore.org.
