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

One more vote with OP. That Atari is a nice looking machine.

Console: Sega Dreamcast

PC: Any IBM beige box from the 90s

The Atari Portfolio (the one John Connors uses in Terminator 2) or the ST Book.

I like the woodgrain look, but I don't think the Atari 2600 is a very good example of it. Lots of audio equipment from the time does it better. Especially when combined with brushed aluminum or stainless steel.

Purple GameCubes are retro now, so I'll go with that as my favorite.

Damn, wood. Or wood-looking material at least.
