                  Oooh! It's Dillinger's Keyboard for real!

[The very latest in keyboard technology] [1]

The Optimus Tactus Keyboard [2] reminds me quite a bit of the keyboard that
Dillinger used in the movie Tron [3]:

[You can tell it's not a programmer's keyboard, for it's missing the control
and alt keys] [4]
[5]

[Although it's still a cool looking keyboard] [6]
[7]

And despite it probably having a horrible feel, I still would love to have
one.

Heck, I would love to have Dillinger's desk [8] from the movie (here, have
another look [9]). The thing is, we now have the technology to do this for
real.
