I've never liked fake wood paneling either, but this looks different to me. It has a quality look to it. I actually think the next design trend will be replicating past eras, but with a Hugh caveate, something this current retro trend overlooked; The retro looking products will be made to the same exacting standards of the products on the past. I can use collector cars, or mechanical watches as examples. I have a 1950's IWC movement 853 watch. I wouldn't trade this watch for the any newer IWC watch. There's just something about the simplicity of my watch I like, along with its unobtrusive look it has, the movement is time tested, and is easily serviced. I found mine in a cheap watch bin. It didn't look like it was touched for 50 years. I wound it up, and it kept perfect time. I knew is was a special watch, with a faded dial. If I had the money, my weekend car would be a 50's-60's Porsche 356. Of course restored to factory standards. I wouldn't want them to change a thing. As I gotten older, strike that--I've always coveted well made, sensible looking, easier to repair things. And that includes computers. I still have a Toshiba Satellite P25-S607 that's still running daily. It's a tank, but it's well made. It has three internal, quiet fans. I still kick myself I don't buy the nos Toshiba that popped up on eBay a few years ago. What I like best about that old Toshiba is I can still fix it with a screw driver. Some people don't like to look of my old computer. When I look at it, I look to its inner beauty, and it just shines in my little world.
