I'd have to go with the wood grain Atari 2600, I'm a sucker for 70's designed electronics.

Yeah, I should have specified I was just talking about the switches!

I was never a big fan of the "Vader" style 2600, but it seems a lot of people like the aesthetic. I was always partial to the six switch look, I just wish they would have made a Sears Video Arcade sixer with the Atari branding! I like the silver by the switches better than the black on the official ones.

The burl woodgrain is also very fancy!

Yeah, it gives it a really nice look!
