    I really dig that keyboard. For some reason I'm soothed by the clickety-clack of keyboards and typewriters.

    Buy one for my house? For this I'd buy a midcity flat with a fabulous view, fit it out in orange and brown melamine and smoked glass coffee tables, and lounge around like Mr Jetson. Even Mrs Jetson would dig it.

    Dear The Internets,

    @darngooddesign: Yes, exactly - I want some more of this "Atom-Punk" that you speak of. Something that looks like the late 50's/early 60's never ended, that people who use Brylcreem & Vitalis and smoke too much and drink cocktails with lunch would be at home with - why can't we have that plastered all over the Intertubes? Rather than douches in top hats & monocles who put brass on everything, at least.

    Purdy, but the more I look at the keyboard, the more I'm irked at the fact that a big deliberate empty space was made where the number pad should be.

    @Kaiser-Machead: Had to look after I read your comment. That would bug the ever living crap out of me. I have to have a numpad when I'm coding and such.

    Yep. Even better would be if a company like Termaltake released a line of cases to the general public based off this theme. I would by one in a split second if it could support a full size ATX board.

    the keyboard & mouse combo is really something else. the heavy solid look is what really makes it. If nothing else, make the keyboard & matching mouse(with multi-touch)

    That is one sexy beast. I could do with a less flashy color than neon orange, though.

    You guys should be wading through iPod docks to get to your desks by now. This one looks like a Ghostbusters trap prototype.
