A new start-up company with an interesting idea. Website needs more content, though.

I actually have an old radio that looks exactly like the photo.
The radio works very well.
I hope their computers do also.

That's pretty cool. Something my wife would definitely like.

Now they need to make monitors look like old TV's, and keyboards look like old typewriters. Put it all in a roll top desk. Now that would be cool. :D

Then, if they could just get the feature I remember so well also incorporated...

When the buggers didn't work you could just wack them on the side with an open hand and 9 times out of 10 they'd get the hint and start working again...

looks good - a couple of points though - have they never heard of round IDE cables?! in a case that small (I assume it's shuttle size) the less mess the better. SATA drives and cables would make it even tidier.
Another thing is the heat dissipation - normally cases which are entirely (or mostly) metal dissipate heat quite well, but this one looks as if it would insulate the heat a bit too much. Get these couple of problems sorted and it could take off really well.
