Ranty Clause
I hate having only one firewire port. What is this - the Dark Ages? *shakes fist*
And I've never understood why computer cases aren't in various shapes, especially like a table with a lid that flips open like an old school desk to reveal all the computer parts. I don't get why they are shaped the arbitrary, intrusive, and ugly way they are. Why aren't they just a flat thing like a thin cupboard that hangs on the wall, or shaped like a bookcase but with a slide-out-the-side panel like a pocket door or gallery storage racks or those sliding pantries in kitchens.
And I wonder why I've never seen a (working) computer case built of Legos. I'm not of a Lego generation, but everything has been translated into Legos except computer cases (at least I've never seen one).

"I like your computer," she said. "It looks like it was made by Indians or something."
Chia looked down at her sandbenders. Turned off the red switch. "Coral," she said. "These are turquoise. The ones that look like ivory are the inside of a kind of nut. Renewable."
"The rest is silver?"
"Aluminum," Chia said. "They melt old cans they dig up on the beach cast it in sand molds. These panels are micarta. That's linen with this resin in it."

Molly has teh goods. Not that I'm interested with Legos - we didn't really have toys back then. I was envious of my cousin's Matchbox cars and erector set and top soldiers, but then I had horses and dogs.
I'm still waiting for a table-computer, though. Or asny computer that functions/looks like something other than a big hunk of junk.
