Always like the aesthetic of the trs-80 hard drive. Might buy a old one to gut and use the case for a modern desktop.

and poor nerds are the modern version of white trash

Implying rich nerds don't also like computers.

>>59613738
more basic and "boring" cars take a bit longer

maybe 40 years or so. and there already is a niche of people that really really like 90s econoboxes.

>>59612485
Safety regulations are mostly why cars look the way they do today.

cult of ideology and self-centered vanity

>>59612261
Gamers wanting flashy stuff to show off, rather than something that's ordinary to look at but performs well.

>>59613496
Wrong

Computers were made for corporate environment, sure there were nerds too, but they gave a fuck about the aesthetics.

Now computers are for everybody aka normies, edgy gamer teenagers, etc.

>>59618118
Well *really* they were made for military intelligence, and then universities and corporations. But it was always the nerds in all of those...

They ripped off the Antec P183 which was already perfect for its time.

A shame they did not bother copying the build quality.

I like the define xl's padded side-panel and easily accessible dust filters. Quality-wise I think they're pretty much equivalent.

>>59616811
That too, due to EPA regulations. Sleeker card use less gas.
