That future my friends, is today!


I can't tell what I like better, the monitor or the twin axis user interface/mouse.

I love the giant typewriter that serves as the keyboard.

[Slaughter]

wow, would hate to have to drive that beast. At least it has a steering wheel.

[Katanas Blade]

The steering wheel being for racing sims, of course!

I still love that pic. Was a part of the daily Photoshops at www.fark.com.

Its a picture of a modern sub control room (taken from the dept. of defense website) converted to greyscale. The modern monitor is replaced by an old TV and the lexmark printer covers up some other stuff. And, of course, the image is topped off by the black and white dude added in. A great and very funny photoshop job.

I have to admit, if I hadn't seen it on Fark first I probably would have thought it was real

Hey, that's pretty good!

I've got a print-out of that magazine clipping outside my office at work. Along with a Tandy computer, 20Mhz, 2MB of RAM...for $8,579 (or some such figure).

Can you imagine playing DC on that. You could easily break your arm playing it. Walk into work with arm in a cast and say yeah did a few rounds of DC with the guys lol.
