Depends on where you lived. Sorta like a soda vs pop vs coke situation.

I’m surprised I’m not seeing anyone list StarWars.

Yes.

Because they weren’t made as stylish. If you had that exact same tv, but with wood-style paneling and the occasional velvet lining, it would be exactly as charming. Nice style has been phased out over time, being reserved for extremely expensive versions of appliances instead of being the standard.

And like, that’s not to say there’s literally no nice style in anything these days, but the average product tends to look… bland and cheap.

I do appreciate being able to use my mouse with the newer designs, though.
