What's with the huge, red, off-centered, 1980's Radio Shack-style alarm clock numbering near the top? Yuk. They couldn't have made that a nice soft-white dot-matrix of some sort like they did with the smaller display near the bottom? Was this a thirty-year project? Did they begin working on it in the 80's and just recently finish (while accommodating the iPod along the way)?

Everything about this ugly thing screams "Bash me with a sledge hammer!" Everything about it is unsymmetrical or off-center and stupidly positioned.

Crikey... Lol... Won't be droppin' any paper on this thing anytime soon.

Big fan of Photoshop filters? I don't get it. Seriously. What would my design preferences have to do with Photoshop?



On another note... that iPod dock above is still INCREDIBLY ugly, lol...]]>Mar 8th 2009 4:59AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 11:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/

BTW, @ Cassini That dot-matrix display used in the lower part is probably a fluoroscan display, which was popularized by Pioneer back in the early 1980's on their audio gear. ]]>Mar 6th 2009 11:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 12:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 12:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 12:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 1:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/Mar 6th 2009 1:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://www.engadget.com/2009/03/06/sonys-obelisk-inspired-cmt-z100ir-ipod-dock-is-full-of-moderist/http://freedom.greatnet.us/images/Washington_Monument.jpg
