Eww.
Apple released the G5 specs and design today. Specs are sweet, but the design ... well ... case in point:
Arany: Is it just me... or is the G5 rather, well, ugly?
Kaelis: ewww.
Kaelis: It's ... a ... box.
Arany: a perforated box
Arany: okay... so the tech specs are impressive, but still...
Kaelis: yeah
Arany: it looks like something out of a dazed and confused physics lab
Kaelis: it's ... not ... Apple design.
Arany: seriously... I now know of PC boxes that look better
Kaelis: That's just sad.
Arany: and I can't figure out what skin Apple wants to use for its interface... Aqua? or Metal? (re: panther finder preview)
Looks like Apple is having some decision-making problems. Blah.
I mean, I like Metal, it's cool ... but I don't want my whole Finder in Metal. If I did I'd have downloaded Brushed a long time ago.
On the plus side, 10.2 is sweet for modding the GUI. And hopefully they won't push Panther on us for another six months, at least.
