What's the deal with Apple having this elegant, cool style, and the biege box PC cousins who have the same boring boxes with minimal visual design thought put into them, etc.? 🙂 The point I'm trying to make.. is why are Macs known for their style while some other vendors' computers seem so boring and ordinary? (No offense to those who like those machines).

Under the hood the Mac may be "better" (faster, etc.) than the PC, or visa versa... but the actual case and exterior design, etc. just seems so much nicer on most Macs (there are a few possible exceptions, but still). I mean, how hard is it to just make a decent looking machine and sell it at a reasonable price? 🙂

Sorry, just thought I'd stir up a little conversation.
 
Would you buy a power drill with satin and silk trimmings and perhaps even an optional Pink finish for $1000?

Enough said really.
