This machine looks different. That's the key -- I guess.
An average powerpc desktop box doesn't look any different from a midi
or mini sized pc. Same for some alpha boxes. Hence, people often
don't realise that something very different is running inside.
tervola, for example, is sitting in a midi tower and it looks like a
damn regular pc, yet still there's a powerpc inside. If people don't
know the details, they don't notice. And if they already know the
details and differences, they don't have to be shown.
