    Electronics designed to be used in prisons are often required to be manufactured using transparent plastic cases. (to prevent smuggling and to make it harder for inmates to hide stuff)

    I had a 900Mhz cordless phone with see-through blue plastic in the early 00s.

    Those iMacs were incredibly cool back in the day. I never used one, but always thought they were awesome.

      My elementary school had a couple of them in the computer lab. We would sprint down there to try and get them first.

        I remember going, as a highschool student, to a university open house and watching the students in the computer lab playing some tank game (bz?) on Silicon Graphics workstations with the biggest CRT monitors I had ever seen. Good old days!
