And the fact that colours go “out of fashion” is kind of annoying. Many years ago, I bought (in the space of a few weeks) a sound system, a TV and a VCR. They were all black. Years later, I replaced the TV: the new one was silver, as I couldn’t find a black one; and I tried! The DVD player is silver as well, even though there are a few black models. But have you tried finding a “desktop” sound system in black lately?
Yep – our Dells at work have been black for some time, as is my wife’s Dell.

Maybe we need ‘skins’ for electrical goods like we have on iPods etc.
