[Still Thinking]

Still cannot touch any iMac?s industrial design I can remember!

Oh, please...what about the egg on a stick?

I'm sorry. The "egg on the stick" reminds me of a desk lamp (I'm assuming that this is the iMac you are talking about). It's one of my favorite designs. It caused quite a stir when it came out. Look at the details on it and the cleanness of the design compared to the (once again) cheap looking Dell. Also reminds me of the Pixar lamp, Luxo Jr.

My guess though is that we're going to have to agree to disagree. I didn't even have a Mac when those came out, and still liked it! What you have to remember however, is while Apple has played with designs like this -- Dell and HP had been shipping boxes with neon lights and lots of air vents disguised as "go fast stripes". That was cool to them circa 2002-2007.
