In 1997, the look of computers changed when Steve Jobs appointed Jonathan Ive vice president of industrial design in 1997. Back in 1998 all we have on our computer desks and in computer stores were ugly beige boxes, all of this changed later that year, well it did for Apple computer anyway. The release of the iMac heralded in a new era of cool looking computers. The iMac was released in a whole host of colours and looked more like a television rather than a computer.
