It looks like it was designed by a board of directors who used one too many focus groups.
That backside in particular is hideous...
It's got the aesthetic's of a washboard and storm drain going for it.

I didn't get it when people on reddit said it looked like a Mac, but now I absolutely see it. That is until you get to the ugly ugly sides with the ports that stick out.

A person buying it for that Macbook looks is gonna want those ugly ports?

The loss of the trackpoint sucks a little but I didn't use it much. This just isn't a keyboard for people typing as much. But the worst is that power button reught beside all the other buttons. Dumb.

And the ports on the side leading to the bump on the bottom? Might as well just have a removable battery with that bump.

LOL this whole design looks slapped together.
