    no, you have to turn the wheel 3-4 rotations in order to start the engine ;)

    No! I wish mine was that advanced! That's got a keyboard and EVERYTHING! I'm sitting here feeding punched cards into a reader. Oh hang on, I'm about to go off-line, the boiler's gone out and the steam pressure's dropped...

    And the man stood so proud of it! If he could see computers now.

    That thing looked like a factory control station. :D

    I like the subwoofer under the wall mounted monitor.

    And especially the generously spaced keys on the kb.

    I for one will thank you for doing so ;)

    I bet that the computer in that picture does have a mouse but it was too big to include in the same room with the computer. :D
