I don't know about sexy, I can't see buying one of these for myself.
*pukes* The other one was waaaaaayyyyyy sexyier, as in the old one was http://www.uglypeople.com/uploaded/110975/newpic27.JPG and this is http://www.uglypeople.com/uploaded/104969/b2.jpg
you're kidding about the "sexy" thing, right?
i'm pretty sure that's still ugly
Engadget, you've got very odd taste. Most gadgets you think are ugly are actually quite striking, and this "sexy" LCD is an f'n monstrosity!
I am most definitely sure that is still ugly.
Does it X-ray? If not does it blend?
I'm in-line with everyone else, that's still pretty darn ugly.
Sexy? That has to be a joke. That's so ugly I might consider PS3 better looking.
Worse than trolling, is trolling off topic. Congratulations for being uber-stupid.
Hideous indeed. Aside from the boring and thick shape, what's with the strange red accent? Surely engadget has been smoking something questionable?
The back is red so that you know when you are facing the rear of the object. See when you produce a product this hideous you have to paint it's backside red because no one can tell which side is the front.
I think that thing looks uglier than their ugliest LCD from before.
SIKE
hey its sexy.....for hospitals.
I hope I'm not the only one that things this is WAY uglier than the other one. Good god...
Hold me back, baby. That white...blockiness...is just so hot.
Who do you think you're kidding? That thing's ugly as sin!!!
yuck! i agree with karo, a ps3 actually might look better, considering the circumstances.
"Rather sexy"? I'm guessing the guys at Engadget have an affinity for the 'healthier' ladies. Hey, good for them.
I can see the marketing materials now: "Get the poor color reproduction and viewing angle limitations of an LCD, combined with the sleek ergonomics of a CRT, plus the particle-board cabinetry feel of IKEA!"
The retired Volvo designer needs to do something in his spare time.
Dear Paul Miller & Engadget,
Please, edit this post, before you lose any remaining credibility in the arena of aesthetics! The people have spoken, the verdict is in, this thing is hideous! Sexy? That beast is as sexy as an open chancre sore.
Kindest Regards,
The Engadget Community
Sarcasm anybody???
I like the old ones more. I never thought the old ones were ugly, just sort of odd.
Wow. Engadget, usually I can rationalize your point of view on a lot of things, but this thing is just plain hideous. Yikes.
Earth to the internet: Stop calling technology sexy.
@Karo: That's ok. It's just whenever I hear it I can't help but attempt to think of said gadget or software in a sexually attractive way, which is not something I want to be imagining. If I could Photoshop, I would dress the tv up in nude pantyhose, link to it, and have saxophone music playing in the background. Pretend I did.
It was just a stupid joke, but I admit being a jerk. I apologise.
i think its sexy...in a '2001: A Space Odyssey' kinda way
Is this a satire article? This is one of the boxiest, ugliest designs I've ever seen for an LCD...
looks like a prop reject from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
HOT!!!
:D
If you click the link to read the article, you'll see the blue one doesn't look too bad.
Is there a hot model cropped out that I can't see?
Is that a floppy drive I see on the side? Just think of all the hi-def content you can fit on a floppy!
That's a 5.25 floppy drive, actually.
Good god you people are shallow. So when a design is not as thin and minimalistic as it could be, it's ugly?
This design is beautifull imo, and atleast it's something new...
Eww. Looks like it belongs in the mental ward at belleview hospital.
thats the ugliest modernist box I've ever seen. for shame engadget.
LMAO. You can't tell me it looks like it belongs in a patient-friendly hospital???
I'm sorry but are you blind!? Even if I was blind I wouldn't buy that. Come on Eizo you can do better than that surely?...maybe not..
