I think the look of the walker is horrible!

DDNI · 12 January 2007, 12:22

Yes your right it is awful looking!

There is a link there to a spoof Walker FAQ, http://www.blachford.info/computer/w...FAQ_3_1415.txt
it likens it to a new Hoover

Needs black drives, could hae been a very cool piece of kit, a precursor to all the all the micro atx media centre things you see now.

DDNI · 12 January 2007, 13:19

Mick_AKA you are right, black drives would have helped..... it to look more like a Hoover!

BippyM · 12 January 2007, 13:26

it's a poo design

Mick_AKA · 12 January 2007, 13:29

Pfff, philistines.
I reckon black drives, a DVD decoder and USB and I would buy one!

BippyM · 12 January 2007, 13:33

I reckon a re-design and I would

I'd like something under my TV to use as a proper multimedia center

The walker was also to be sold as a board for housing in a case of your choice...

They tried to sell a 68030 in 1995? Gosh. Wonder what they used to think with instead of a brain.

We got our Macintosh Colour Classic II in 1995, that was a 68030 and it was awesome!
