Straight from the Department ‘Bag of Ugly’ comes this Gachapin and Mukku netbook.
Gachapin and Mukku are two popular Japanese television characters who appeared in the children’s program Hirake! Ponkiki on Fuji TV.
Considered the steady stream of comments on the Gachapin and Muttu blog these two characters seem to be rather popular in the land of the rising sun. I think they are rather frightening though, but who am I.
Now they have been made immortal in a but-ugly fluorescent green netbook (rebranded version of the Konjinsha ML6KL12F, complete with Atom 1.6Ghz CPU, Windows XP Home SP3, 1GB RAM, TV tuner, 160GB HDD and all the other usual specs).
I’m pretty sure this netbook will be rather popular in Japan, similar to the Hello Kitty netbook but I find it butt-ugly and would hide it from my kids. I might as well give them the BD of The Mist if I want to scare them for life.
