"Rounded Corners and Why They Are Here to Stay": Well, nothing lasts forever, but this is article makes a good case!

Apple’s legacy with rounded corners extends beyond software. When introduced, the iPhone was more “pocketable” than other phones of its time. Similarly, the iMac wasn’t as intimidating as the standard “Personal Computer” of the day: the Mac seemed like a laid-back friend; the PC, a man in a dark suit.

Jobs got it. Apple gets it. We are hard-wired to avoid and dislike sharp objects.
