HP still in charge of making the ugliest cases ever.
Every single HP computer looks like it was picked up for $0.99 somewhere.

Maybe their consumer systems, but I rather like their older workstations especially. HP always channeled their heritage as an instrument maker into their hardware and produced some pretty beautifully over-engineered kit.

The i2000 isn't their own design though, it's just a rebranded Intel reference box.
