Blame Apple. Didnt they start this white thing. --snicker-- At least Nintendo had some class and made it glossy unlike the XBox which just looks cheap in all its incarnations. As soon as my warranty expires I'm doing something special to my case.
Yea I think Apple started it and now ruined it with their ugly grey computers with black frames and glossy screens... Long live my white Core 2 Duo iMac!

Xbox 360

Heat your warranty sticker off. I didn't care about warranty, I did the xclamp mod and AS5 along with a air duct expansion when it was still working. 06 console still working here.

For example.

Black LCD Tv.

White Playstation 3

XBOX 360 in Black (witrh glossy green led lites)
I guess I wouldn't mind for a glossy white or black components in my entertainment center. What ruins my entertainment center right now is my Halo Xbox, Gamecube with pokemon skin, and Mass Effect 360 but the worst is the silver DVR/Cable box. If that was black then the rest would match well.

And a White wii
Thats just me. Still that Red DSi is real nice
