Non-stackable case?!?!? Why, just why did they think that a curved top was more important than the ability to stack more devices together, or to make it easier

Non-stackable case?!?!?
Why, just why did they think that a curved top was more important than the ability to stack more devices together, or to make it easier to fit in a simple and precise slot.

- crimsonalucard 11y agoSame reason why all cars nowadays look like cough drops. Aerodynamics. It's a common feature added to many objects. My laptop, furniture, shampoo bottle, my backpack, my smart phone etc.. etc. Whenever I see an aerodynamic building I just laugh, because when I throw my ugly smart phone into the trash, at least the aerodynamics makes it a bit faster while it's flying through the air. But buildings? Why? those things don't even move.

- extropic-engine 11y agoActually, aerodynamics are really important for buildings, especially tall ones. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_engineering https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_engineering (OK, you were probably being sarcastic! But wind engineering is cool!)
- Stratoscope 11y agoThe Citicorp building in New York City was a particularly scary case of wind engineering (or lack of): http://www.damninteresting.com/a-potentially-disastrous-design-error/ http://www.damninteresting.com/a-potentially-disastrous-desi...
