    I LOVE the built-in cutting board idea !!!!  All it needs is a
bit-bucket underneath for the scraps ....  :-)    

     A little pin-jig on the side for splicing PPT would be nice,
too .....

    And maybe a spice rack ......

Fun reminiscing, but a bit heavy on the hyperbole:

"If that sounds unlikely, you might like to remind yourself that even in the
early 1980s, almost nobody knew what a computer actually was."

Gotta call bullshit on that one, at least in the US.
