As soon as they decide enough people have black, they will switch back to beige
or to another color. Anything to sell a few extra units.

I never switched to black except for the monitor on my main system. The only
reason I did even that was because I basically had no choice with the type and
size monitor I wanted. As a color for computers and peripherals, black is ***
ugly to me.

So far I've been able to avoid the black plague almost entirely. Only
my mouse (a Logitech G5 which I love dearly) has gone over to the
dark side.
