You're only cool if you collect rotary phones.

I've been meaning to do a portable typewriter / laptop conversion, with the typewriter case opening up and having the screen, with a laptop touchpad and the typewriter itself providing the input devices. I just need to find a suitable machine.
Good luck with your venture JohnnyTwoEyes! I am definitely baiting my breath to see it completed :)

*sighs*

Steampunk creations make me tingle :shucks:

I've been thinking I should get myself a typewriter. If I'm sitting down to really write something, I try to edit too much in my head before I start typing. If I am forced to actually write it out, I might do better at holding off the editing stage till I actually have something written.

the click and clack of a typewriter really makes it feel like you're accomplishing something.
