Microsoft deployed a black, white, cyan, and magenta color scheme for marketing its Surface back in 2012-2013. I boggled at the logic as to this -- were they somehow trying to evoke nostalgia for pukey CGA displays? Because we don't really remember those fondly...

"Neo 80s" has been a popular aesthetic for the past few years, so I wouldn't fault Microsoft too much for using bright neon colors.
