Ugliest Computer I've ever seen -- The EasyPurple for $78

[Stoney]

My god if I had that computer the first thing I'de do would buy a $5 can of spray paint n paint the thing something NOT PURPLE.

Smurf

Pretty bad when a smurf doesn't like it J/K

So THIS is the best attempt by PC manufacturers to latch onto the iMac craze?!

Funny, I can't see why they didn't sell.

Thank goodness the mouse and keyboard match. We wouldn't want any clashing colors now would we.

Well I think it is pretty ugly too. However I also have a young daughter that feels it's really quite nice. And since I have an extra 466 Celeron a 3.2 Gig HD and lots of other parts that will never be used it is now on order. She promises to keep it in her room at least it will fit with the colors in there. So a little pity; this dad is going to have to actually assemble this with open eyes. What the hell she likes it.

You may be hurting seeing as that is a socket 7 motherboard not a socket 370.

Holy Moly. I couldn't bring myself to enlarge the pic.

I bought the silver one a month back. It's a neat little toy pc if you have a spare k6-2 cpu, sdram, and a hard drive. My only complaint is it runs only under win98 and ME. Forget about 2000 or XP. It's a bit noisy, but replace the small bottom case fan with a quieter pentium or 486 cpu and it makes a big difference. My wife actually saw me tinkering around with it and the purple one caught her eye. She was a little upset at me for not getting the purple one. This is her PC btw. Check out the I-Appliance forum for better discussion on this.

I don't know... i think the barbie one is a lot uglier

 

[SonicTron]

It looks like it can fit a normal ATX mobo. Can it? I'm not going to purchase this football thingy of course............

 

[KamakaziRcr]

No, it won't fit a ATX mobo. Off the top of my head, the mobo is about 8"x8". The size and shape of the case is equivilant to a 6" binder half filled with paper. I was thinking about printing out an eye retina and put it on the CD door and a couple of wired little arms on the side to make it look more like a one eye alien pc.

 

[Sunmansfx]

That IS ugly !! Ugly has been defined.

 

[Doomer]

Man, I can see it now. A Dork sitting in from of this thing and it says "Welcome, you've got mail".

 

[unclebud]

[JHawk]

I looked up ugly in the dictionary and it had a picture of this computer!!

 

[govikes]

Sunmansfx, you're wrong...Pontiac defined ugly when they released the Aztec!!

 

[pogomips]

The only thing not easy about this thing is that it certainly isn't easy on the eyes!

They charge ten dollars more for the silver one.

 

[hojl]

I thought this computer was a decent deal until and even better then the burbie until I found it is not even socket 370.
This is because it has built in lan card unlike the burpie or burbie
.

 

[her209]

its a mutant iMac

 

[Evadman]

I saw this when it was first posted. I do not think it looks that bad, but I would never buy it. Worse comes to worse, I can hide it in my rack

That is a much more appropriate word than "onboard" do you not agree?

 

[PicPop]

:Q
the case looks very cute for me...heehee

<< Sunmansfx, you're wrong...Pontiac defined ugly when they released the Aztec!! >>



HAHA! I have to agree 100% with ya there.

 

[matmax]

This thing looks as if it had the crap beat out of it with the ugly stick.

 

[heartsurgeon]

am i the only one that thinks this is really a cassette tape player? look really close at the large image of the case.. there appears to be a cassette tape inside the "bubble".....
