Well, Apple don't (currently) use badges on their products. the have an Apple logo, but is it embedded in the products design and not added as a badge like a vanilla PC.

rofl! not enjoying the thread m8?
i think what people are saying is they don't care if it's a badge or a logo or part of the design ethos, they just want to kill it!!
So, was I the only one who just imagined the design team asking Steven Jobs about the new badges, and Steve saying:
(I really do watch to much video based entertianment...)

Oh that brings back memories!
I must have been like 11 or 12 when I accidentaly saw UHF on a Sunday evening!
It changed me forever.... :inlove:
Tsk tsk.... its still a badge mate, whether its part of the design or not. Just because Apple design a curvy bitten apple hole in the casing, they are still putting a piece of plastic the shape of a curvy bitten apple into that hole like a badge, its just DESIGNED... WOO! DESIGN! LOOK MUM! ...ITS DESIIIIIGNED! I would like THAT for Christmas... coz its desiiiiigned! .....Looks nice... *Swishing my hands around in a curvy shape and pouting*
You Apple guys make me laugh.. Haha!
Actually, don't badges have pins on them?
Not a computer in it's own right but an add on.
The MegaCD.
It promises so much and delivers nothing but crushing disappointment.
The MegaCD 1 looks so cool, plays CDs and has so much potential but if you play any of the system specific titles they are mostly truly dire.
Existing franchises ported to it have so much space to play with and what do they fill it up with? Mostly nothing.
One of the best games for the system was SonicCD, and it is perhaps it's only saving grace. But TBH, that's one game, is it enough?
Not for me.
I have one, and it is the ginger stepchild of my retro world. It gets what it needs, and nothing else. If the day comes when it eventually goes tilt, well, meh. I'm not sure I could be bothered to even crack open the case to look inside.

Would you be interested in selling it R0j? It would get a lot more love from me I can assure you
Been looking for a Mk1 for ages. Sold my Mk2 a few months back.

Actually the Sega CD had some pretty solid titles - it's just that hardly any of them were localized for the English-language market, and the ones that were seem to have vanished down the obscurity hole as far as public awareness is concerned ($10 says Sega of America shuffled them off to the sidelines because they couldn't conceive of Americans wanting to play games from Japan, but I wasn't paying attention at the time.) So all anybody remembers is the shoddy-ass FMV games.Not a computer in it's own right but an add on.

Still, if one is less than perfectly ethical and willing to exploit the fact that the device does not know a CD-R from an original disc, one might have some fun with titles like Popful Mail, the Lunar games, Keio Flying Squadron, etc. It's not a bad device, it was just marketed that way :/
