I just saw an add for the new HP Brio for $1k. That box has no class whatsoever. I would send the entire team that designed that case to an art class. It has no lines, no interest, no anything. It's just a box.

Even though I don't like the Presario look it's no contest between the 4504 and the Brio. CPQ is a much better deal for performance and looks. Even the black case at $800 looks nicer.

I have no idea what HP is thinking in releasing this product except that they need it fast and they need it cheap. They know how to design a nice looking cabinet but why they didn't think it important for Brio is beyond me. The new Vectra look is only slightly more appealing. C'mon HP I know you can do it!
