It's not a vaccuum tube, it just looks like one. The light is a LED. Tube lights aren't blue anyway.

Yeah, if it were orange or even red, I'd probably have bought one. Sure I've never seen a vacuum tube with a circuit board inside it, but that would just be nitpicking - blue light? Just makes it look like anything except what it was designed to look like, lol

Well, it does explain why he would have to use the optical output. On my MBP, the analog audio out faintly clicks when changing volume, and I can here bleeps and buzzes when the computer is working on something. It's atrocious if you use in-ear headphones.
