The very thing he built would not be able to exist without the ubiquity of the very "ugly" computers that he eschews. Computers became affordable because they were mass produced as cheaply as possible, with less and less regard to aesthetics. Let's not also forget that various companies have tried to make computers beautiful, or at least less ugly. Who can forget the swoopy-curvy-nearly-art-deco computer cases of the early 2000's? The iMac G3, the Compaq Presario's, and the other ones that tried to round out the corners of the beige boxes that we were all so used to by then?
