Is the one on the left a thermostat controller?

using my powerful skills of observation, and comprehensive reading, i have deduced that it is indeed a pocket radio... not only similar in design, but function as well! Who'd 'a thunk it?

• Good design is honest.
• Good design is durable.

Uh-oh, I guess that blows a hole in their theory.

It's a joke. The article purports that Apple took design ideas from Braun, and two of the braun empolyee Dieter Rams's design guidelines are those stated above. Since Apple designed products are neither honest nor durable, the implication is false.

See, it's not funny when I have to explain it.
