    • 650 can get you a gorgeous piece of history, meaning a real typewriter from 1910 that still works beautifully and will likely outlast that fake typewriter thing. And for the record, you can get vintage typewriters for like $100-200 and again, still work.

    • Yep, doesn't even have hot swap switches, a decent screen, or a good lasting battery on it. I'd just DIY it for that price. You might be looking at 10 hours of time building it (so like a weekend), 100 bucks for getting a 3D printed case for it, and maybe need to learn the surface basics of using an Arduino (or other micro controller). But you'd still do it for less than 650 and it would all be custom to exactly what you want, including the screen, battery, wireless options, and all things in-between that. Plus, you'd be able to replace anything real easy down the line with the knowledge you gain.

  • A PS2 built into a TV is a great idea, I don't know why they didn't make more things like this. TVs with VHS and DVD players in were quite common, a PS2 makes a great DVD player, it just makes sense. Perfect for your cabin, or a bedroom. I know I would've loved to have one of those in my room as a kid. That being said,, this isn't tightly integrated. Kinda just looks like a TV standing on top of a DVD player, which is a thing you could've done. They should've made one based on the PS2 slim, and integrated it into the back of the unit, with just the controllers and memory cards plugging into the bottom.

  • If I am not too badly mistaken that a typing keyboard was called a word processor. Because with a typewriter it printed directly to the paper with the ink ribbon. The word processors either came with the printer already attached or could connect to a computer to print. Now of days they probably have wireless printing with those. The biggest advantage with the word processor you could proof read what you typed and even spell check with the typewriter if stuff didn't sound right or miss spelled you either had to re-type or use a lot of whiteout.

  • In Joanna's defence... You HAVE said worse Austin, and you know it. But it's not been anything too bad. 😇 BTW, I've been looking into mechanical keyboards an alarming amount lately (I need a new one). 300-400 can get you a similar keyboard to the Freewrite, with hot swappable switches, and it will be wireless with maybe 20 ms lag, and you could add additional parts to the board like a macro section, a little screen for any info over USB/Bluetooth, heavier base plate, as well as custom engraving. Then for 100 bucks more, you can get a custom enclosure and switches, as well as an Arduino to manage it all. Way more flexible than whatever that was.
