This is what computers were supposed to look like when i was young.
Honestly, I don't know how old you are but I am 29 and as someone who loves modern tech I have fallen in love with old retro tech colors and designs as well.
I recently have been modifying old gaming hardware like my GameCube and buying things like Gamboys and Nintendo DS:s and even modern takes on old hardware like the Analogue Pocket.
I absolutely love the way these look in this image.
I'm old enough that computers in private homes were science fiction when I was young.
They still are today! You just have to pick up an old book
