It’s a day that has became known as Black Monday and for good reason. A quarter century ago – on Oct. 19, 1987 – the U.S. stock market suffered its biggest one-day drop in history. The Dow Jones industrial average swooned 508 points, or 22.6 per cent, leaving investors stunned and shaken, while triggering a worldwide rout in equity prices. Toronto stocks fell in sympathy, but only about 11 per cent, or half the decline seen on Wall Street. (Photo: A Toronto Stock Exchange trader at the end of the day on Black Monday.)

The PS4 parallelogram isn’t just stylish, it also has a functional purpose. With a façade that slopes downward just a bit, it’s a little easier to push the power and eject buttons. The slight overhang at its back, meanwhile, hides its cables. An LED stripe runs down the length of the console and pulses blue when it’s on, or orange when it’s in standby mode. The pulsing is a nice touch – it’s meant to give the impression that the machine is “alive,” as the designers say. (Note, not all the parts of this image are to scale)
