Cor, look at that!
I thought my new laptop was quite nicely finished, but I don't think it compares with this:
steampunk laptop. Also, look at the keyboards!
I was supposed to be going to an Oldies Club committee meeting today, but have wimped out. I just have so much work on at the moment that going to Oxfordshire even for a day isn't an option - it is about 4 hours each way, so I'd not get a chance to do any work that day and would probably be shattered enough that I wouldn't get much done the day after either.
I do hope all this work is going to scale down a bit sometime soon, there is just too much of it at the moment. I did several hours yesterday and really should do more today. :-( Still, it all pays :-)

It brings to mind Arthur C Clarke's "The Steam-Powered Word Processor" - of which a poor synopsis is given here:
