It's a geek thing... There's just something about the colour blue. It doesn't matter what kind of gizmo it is, if it has something that glows blue, geeks will covet it. For example, have you seen the new cell phones with the blue LED screen? (DRrrrrRRooooool...) Sweet!!
When you drive by a house and you see an eerie blue glow eminating, do you not find yourself wondering what they have? I know I do. If it was like a green, yellow, or red eerie glow I am certain the mystique would have nowhere near the same appeal.
I wish I could finish off with something like "J/K" .. but the truth is ... well ... I know I really just dig things that glow blue.
