- LargoLasskhyfv 6y agoHrm. Sorry. OTOH, it's sufficient to ask you "Did you mean: Frog Design Inc.?" and get you there whith one more click! Incredible, innit?

- spamizbad 6y agoThere was a lot of innovative design in the 90s when computers transitioned from being viewed as industrial-like equipment to friendly, humanist tools. I might just be getting old, but there were some really great designs in the 90s. Even things old PC towers like the Inwin Q500 still look good, despite not being the latest fashion.
