We have weird VW Beetle looking one, a Larry King microphone, a bubble iMac, a Star Trek Klingon, an XBox, a bag of luggage, an idon't know what, a rackmount thing, a skyscraper thing, a blue blob, a green kidney, a mini iBook, ugh, I can't go on. Those are all pretty nasty.

Most of the designs are worse than just ugly: they're pointless. Ziggurats? Fins? WTF? Maybe half the designs seemed to address the "ease of use" theme, and none well.
Whatever Apple pays John Ive, it's not enough.
