So if Apple uses brushed aluminium design, and brushed aluminium is better, nobody else should use it?

- MartinCron 14y agoFaster is "better" than slower. Easier is "better" than harder. Cheaper is "better" than more expensive. These are pretty obvious and well understood. I can't really see brushed aluminum as "better" finish choice than satin nickel, semi-opaque plastic, oil-rubbed bronze, polished marble, cherry burlwood, or rich Corinthian leather. Other companies should feel free to use it, but they must understand that they will suffer the withering wrath of my derisive scorn if they are going to be so unabashedly derivative in their design choices.
- adolph 14y agoI don't think HP is using brushed aluminum.
- 4ad 14y agoIt was an example my parent post referred to.
