Iconfactory artist, Louie Mantia, has submitted an icon set inspired by Pixar’s robots WALL•E + EVE. The set of 18 hard drive icons contrasts the industrial design of the sleek Apple-like EVE with the “industrial accident” look of the garbage bot WALL•E.
The icons are freeware so go download them and check them out. And if you find that you don’t like them, you can feel free to toss them into space.

LaCie has announced the Golden Disk, a device created by famed industrial designer Ora-Ito. Offering up to 500GB of storage this sleek device will become the focal point for any design conscience customer and the envy of James Bond and Austin Powers movie villians.
Sitting almost silent thanks to fanless operation, the Golden Disk can connect to any universal high-speed USB 2.0 interface.
The LaCie Golden Disk will be available late October from LaCie direct and widely available via LaCie’s specialized dealer network at the suggested retail price starting at USD$189.

Drop by Apple’s “Get a Mac” page and check out the three new additions to the provocative series. “Accident” which highlights Apple’s industrial design of the MagSafe Power Adapter and built-in iSight Camera. “Angel/Devil” speaks to the envy many PC users feel when seeing how much fun Mac users have making great creative projects with their computers. And, finally, “Trust Mac” is a bit of a retread of the “Viruses” ad, this time focusing more on spyware, claiming that Macs are not a target.
Apple’s Get a Mac ads star Justin Long of Accepted as the Mac and The Daily Show’s John Hodgeman as the PC.
