The Technology Equivalent of White Pants
Sunday, August 13, 2006
Wandered into the Apple store on Michigan avenue this weekend and was struck dumb by all the white computers. I haven't used an Apple computer since junior high - specifically 1992, when I was the captain of the KJHS computer club and "Oregon Trail" was the coolest computer game known to man. That being said, the Apple store was a bit of a shock to see. WHAT IS WITH ALL THE WHITE COMPUTERS? It looks like a weird set from a Mel Brooks' film. Am I the only person on earth who feels this is a bad choice in design?!

Let's be honest. It's just going to get dirty, and unlike socks or sheets, you can't toss your iBook into the wash on hot with bleach straight up.
