@fristi it’s gotta be the best looking mass production computer ever made It’s cute and stylish and even comes it’s different colors tooThe big bad thing about this design was that it didn’t have a floppy drive For 1999 that’d pretty rough but worth it for the amazing design

@ocean I wish we could have aesthetics like that these days. If it's pleasing to look at, you don't even need to go with the flat meme that all current all-in-ones have today. Make it bubbly and cute :blobcatmelt:

@icedquinn Sadly even this keyboard is cursed. They are rubber domes.In the 80s Apple's keyboard weren't junk. The OG Macs shipped with Alps switches (Which are still better than 99% of keyboards on the market today)

@Rasp @ocean more height. reminder that 4:3 = 16:12. A lot of people associate it with low res stuff, but there were 2048x1536 monitors which are higher res than 1920x1080 in both directions. A simpler comparison is that there was 1600x1200 (as opposed to 1600x900). My ThinkPad T60p I used to have had a 1400x1050 panel. That's better than 1440x900 (16:10) and way better than 1366x768

@brad @ocean if there is one thing I learned from mounting a monitor above my main one is that I hate looking up. More V's would be a pain in the neck.

@Rasp @ocean I don't think it's that much of a difference. You just get an extra chunk at each step-up in res compared to 16:9. Like a 4k monitor is going to have quite a bit of height compared to a 1080p one. Mounting a monitor above your main one would be more like if we were talking 16:24 or something. Only a small part of the bottom of that above-monitor is how much extra height there'd be.

@theruran It breaks my heart so much. You know Apple used to ship keyboards with ALPS SWITCHES in the 80sLiterally god-tier keyboards, the best you could get. (Other than Model M)Now Apple's Keyboards have Touch ID and other neat features I want but they are god awful chicket keys that may be good for typing a url for a webpage but not any serious typingIt sucks because I want the new features but I also want a mechanical keyboard

@ocean You're clearly not old enough the days when Apple had color... And not grayscale aesthetics.Colorful PCs are a thing of the past. Everyone was a steel, white, black or other similarly grayscale color now.Kinda funny how GPUs drain the color from the chassis?
