Do people buy MAC gear for the blue meters


I have a friend of mine that owns all MAC gear but never listens to it. He says he just bought it for the glass front and blue meters. I have a feeling a lot of people are like my friend.

Most people do want their gear to look nice if possible. Not to many buy a car that is ugly, with the exception of the Volkswagen Thing. LOL. I hope I don't get any collectors angry. Link [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_181]
This is one product I think the meter just doesn't seem to fit. It's their turntable. [http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/products/mcintosh-mt10-turntable.asp]
There's nothing worse than being out of town and having your watch battery go dead, while your waiting for your flight. With a Rolex or other Swiss watch with a mechanical/automatic movement, there is no worry. Yes, it may be a second or two off, but they keep running. TV stations don't even start on the second like they used to. Before we could by atomic clocks cheap, I set my watch to a short wave radio. Not for 30-40 years. Maybe Mac people like that part. Their amps seem to keep on going too.
Sure did. They've been called Mac for way over half a century now.[http://mcc.berners.ch/receivers/MAC1900.pdf]
