G-Drive design pays homage to the Mac

G-Drive could be short for "Gee, it looks like a Mac!" The
new line of external hard drives from G-Technology sports a sleek grilled metallic look reminiscent of the Power Mac G5. The drives will be available in 160G, 250G and 400G configurations, include both USB 2.0 and Firewire 400/800 connectivity, and sport a low-noise fan-less cooling system.

The company website features an image of one of the drives resting atop a G5, which looks more than a bit like a big Mama Mac carrying a little Mac cub on her back. :) What is it about being a geek that makes me want to anthropomorphize technology? Am I the only one with this tendency? Though there is something decidedly more organic about Apple's design aesthetic (consider especially the last generation of humanoid iMacs) that lends itself to such folly moreso than say, your average Wintel utilitarian box. Am I preaching to the converted?

The G-Drives will be available starting next month with prices starting at $169 USD. Could make a nice pet for your Mac!
