    This is kind of a shit article. Most of these are just old hardware that eventually had modern improvements, not “trends.”

    A “trend” is cold cathode black lights inside the case, not a silly naming scheme for CPU revisions.

      Ya acrylic side cases where a trend, maybe 3D monitors but everything else in there was just specific technology that has been replaced by better technology…

      IDK I would say 3d monitors are a trend that died pretty hard

        A trend implies a level of popularity. There was none.

        It’s ultimately just failed (or “pre-successful”) technology that wasn’t able to do the job well enough at a sufficient price to develop a market.
