Or rather the lack of them, it least in my case (just look at the site).
There is so much emphasis nowadays placed on the form and the looks that many tech products end up being praised for their design, but once you start digging, the insides make you cringe because of the sloppy work and lack of substance it tries to cover.
It's become so bad that I automatically go into a "tread lightly" mode whenever I have to approach a piece of technology with a stunning and trendy design.
Maybe that's why I was immediately drawn to Go when I saw its web site :)
