Subject: Re: Re: The ten SEXIEST computers of ALL TIME . The Register
I agree that the Sinclairs belong on the list. They
have a very sleek,
distinct look that certainly counts as sexy insofar as any bit
industrial
design can count as sexy. Personally, my biggest
problems with the list are the inclusion of the C128
and the PS3. The C128
looks "sexy" only compared to other Commodores
(industrial design was never
a Commodore strong point) and is otherwise a
pretty bland beige slab. The PS3 is OK looking but not
really a computer
and not even the best-looking Sony game console (which would be
the PS2)
Commodore's CBM-II range is probably on the top of my list for "sexiest".
