Maybe from Apple Paladin (Project X)?

Seems similar to the icon next to the copy button, no?
Was this ever actually a functional thing?

Judging by the photos, it looks like it was almost production-quality, at least on the outside.

I'll assume they were functional prototypes, case parts were texturized, but what a gawdawful kluge! I really don't think Paladin could have gone into production with the innards in this form.
