Hmmm....that keyboard only seems useful to me if you don't know how to type without looking at the keyboard. Without any tactile feedback on my fingers I think I'd end up slowed way down.

As for the mouse we already have trackpads and I hate them, the first thing I do with laptops is seek out a regular mouse to plug in.

But I agree that they'd look cool as part of an Ikea office display, I just doubt that I'd want to actually use them.

Just think of the typos I'd make!

I remember seeing that some years ago - the story's recycling itself !

...oh, and the guy who folds up the corrugated metal to accommodate the bottles is known as "The Manila Folder"

Some really cool stuff on Wirecutter (courtesy of Woot) including

Dieter Rams SK5 Phonosuper Record Player, $875. By master designer Dieter Rams and sold in the late '50s and early '60s. It's not really a record player as much as it is fancy nerd furniture.

Balloon Speaker, $45. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Secret Passageway Book Switch, $50. Secret passageway book switch!

There's more: I'll let you discover
