Oh my god it's a hard drive shaped like a powder compact! Surely that means all women now have the sudden urge to rush out and grab this piece of equipment that could be deemed as male discrimination? Or rather patronising to the female species? The product shot even involves the 2.5-inch external hard drive surrounded by other cosmetics - because we absolutely *love* make-up that much that we'll buy anything that mildly resembles the stuff?
If it's not pink, it's some kind of make-up oriented gadget aimed explicitly at women. When will manufacturers learn - we don't give a toss about our gadgets resembling all the things that stereotypically epitomise being female! I'm not disputing that some women like this kind of thing, but do they have to make it so freakin' obvious?
This piece of make-up machinery is just a concept and whether it makes it into production is another story. With the amount of negativity surrounding it, it might be wise for Samsung to leave it this way.
