i think it's still a lovely looking gadget.

someone should bring back that chunky-ass industrial design.

it looks like a little landrover with buttons.

it had a perspex panel at the back, and big coloured gears you could watch turn.

actually gadget-hacking one of those would be fucking awesome

a device that cancels out rape alarms and replaces it with a kind of dog whistle that only other rapists can hear, calling them to come and join in.

You forgot a screen? They've just had a nice breakthrough on OLED energy efficiency and light intensity over at KAIST.

Personally I'd run a BSD or maybe Ubuntu. ALthough it probably wouldn't take much work to port DSL over to it.

But why the fuck you'd want to carry around something that big is mind boggling.
