I dunno. I think you just prefer rounded aesthetics. IMO the Saturn just looks like an oversized CD player. Boring and no personality. The little ridges and whatnot on the PlayStation were just plain neat to me , and I greatly prefer boxy to rounded. It’s why the PS One was such a disappointment by comparison.

If a burger is going to break the glass, it’s either really bad glass or a really bad burger.

Open the box. Leave it out for a week. Crumble it up once it’s hard and stale. Put the bits in a bowl. Pour in some milk. Sprinkle some sugar and honey. You’ve made pizza cereal. Bonus points if you use chocolate milk.
