Hmm.. my guess is because they're a hideous relic of 1990s Apple design.

The fact that it was fanless along with the fact that people would use it to stack stuff on top of because of it's ideal shape...this allowed for the machines to overheat, if I remember properly. It's a beautiful design, though.

whats that black laptop? is it an apple computer? and whats that box with the apple logo on it?

You made my brain explode. That's a Powerbook Pismo, the last of the Powerbook G3's. It's been upgraded with a 550Mhz G4, though. The box with the Apple logo is the Powermac G4 Cube. It maxed out at 500Mhz back in the day, but you can get dual-1.8Ghz G4 upgrades for it nowadays, and I think they make a single processor 2.0Ghz G4 for it too.

Uh... yeah. Mine is just the 450Mhz, though.

There was no Powerbook G5, btw, they're pulling your leg. The Aluminum Powerbook G4 was the last of the Powerbooks before the MacBook Pro's.

http://www.apple-history.com is a nice place to go through the different Apple computers over the years. There's a few gems in there, and also a lot of Performas. Avoid those.

powerbook g5? im confused!! i thought that the powerbook g5 was the LAST powerbook, and was aluminum, when did this black thing start?

Lol :D He's messing with you. There was no powerbook G5 - the G5 chips were too hot to make a laptop with. They were only ever used in the desktops. That machine is an older powerbook, before the nice silver ones and the current black macbooks.
