Jony "It Doesn't Need To Work, It Just Needs To Look Cool" Ive strikes again.
Product design Anakin used to make some dope shit before he turned to the dark side.
God, I love that case design. Eventually, I'm gonna put a modern system in one.
It seemed cool because everything was beige or white or black and square. "Boring" industrial design (that I liked, but those Apple stuff pictures I liked too, though not as much as chromecore GBA and PS2, remember when everything was chromecore?) and this bubbly-transparent-plastic-luminous thing.
I don't think I'd like it really using it though. And it is tasteless, like everything Ive designed.
I’m mostly referring to how the case functioned. The door, the legs that tripled as handles and rack mount holes. The G3 / G4 cases were easy to access, upgrade, move, and store.
Ahhh, the good ole days
At least the previous version that uses AA batteries, you can swap them out and keep working. Now people need two mice just to continue working...
Cool-looking stuff sells, man.
