We've got retro cars like the Prowler and Cruiser, retro stereos and CD players, Retro clothes. They had throwback jerseys in football a couple years ago. Think some company will go back and design their computers after the (you put the name of your old computer here)?

If so what would be the coolest style to use.

I think my 33mHz Lingo(I think that's what it is called) would do pretty well. It's heinous and it's got a digital display on the front reading the processor speed (33mHz) in red.

This was my brothers idea, but I thought it was a good one so I thought I'd post it.

I hated the LCD thing that told you what speed your computer was running at so no I doubt we will have a "retro" style computer.
