It's really too bad they couldn't have made the bay covers either plain or actually look like a floppy drive.

So close, and yet, so far.

If they're removable, could just put actual floppy drives in.

EDIT: Oh, they're flip-down drawer covers rather than fixed panels. Well, still might be removable.

I mean even if you could remove them, the problem is that beige is not always the same beige: same problem you had 30 years ago.

The colors would never, at any point, remotely match the rest of the beige, and it'd be nice if a premium product that exists only for the aesthetics, would have just you know, done that last itty bitty little thing so it'd look right (from at least a distance) and be color matched.

Honestly the mismatching beiges just make it even more period correct. At least from how I remember them

Right??? Also you need a 13 inch monogrome green screen. Like the original game boy......except giant.

.....what? 13 inches WAS giant back then.

I think big was 17 inches, but they were like 24 deep and 50lbs.
