A solid article, but the author misses the fact that Apple’s industrial designs are not just pretty, but functional. Aluminum is shiny, but also sturdy and lightweight. The trackpad is huge and eye-catching, but also there to help you get stuff done.
I’m dulled to the prettiness of Apple’s styling. I use a unibody MacBook and an iPhone because they’re functional.
