The Genelec point source speakers felt like a life goal / holy grail kind of thing to me when they first appeared, they just seemed so futuristic. But retaining some semblance of rationality I went with the more pedestrian 1032Cs when I finally upgraded my old 8030s earlier this year (I'm not using them as desktop speakers, mind :-)
Genelec do have 8331 in their three-way point source series, but those are 2k€ a piece. Personally I can't agree on the PC speaker look, I see them as pleasantly tool-like with a strong "form follows function" vibe, but I guess it's not surprising that everyone won't like them.
