The set I ordered arrived yesterday. They look great! They also updated the Lisa design and put the vents on the correct side :)

Got mine as well. Looks weird to me - perhaps this is a feature of the design trying to avoid trademark/copyright issues. The color of the fabric seems a bit pre-yellowed to my eyes, but only slightly. There's something off about the scale of the thing, i.e. distance between the twiggy drives relative to each other, vs the monitor's location, the size of the monitor, etc.

The back seems to be a lot more detailed and closer to a real Lisa than the front side. The power button/keyboard plug patches look really weird to me. The feet look ok, the slats on the side look good.

Looking at https://throwboy.com/ I feel the other pillows look a lot better designed than the Lisa one. Perhaps the word better could be replaced with more accurate in this context.

In terms of trademark/copyright issues influencing design, maybe that's wrong too, their Finder icon is very much similar to the real thing, so that's a bit weird too that the Lisa one is further away. For example, the Bondi Blue iMac pillow looks a lot closer to a real iMac than the Lisa one does to a real Lisa, as do the iBook, G5 pillows. Maybe that's my beef with it.

Anyway, just my interpretation of the thing, don't take my view of it as important.

So, it's kinda growing on me. What did it? I placed it under a window and when the sun hits it, it seems too pick up a nice warm white glow.I'm guessing the stuffing and cover is transparent.

I'm setting up my new office, and think these for the cubby nicely :)
