I saw one of those "pianos" at Sharper Image for about $60.
I didn't have the balls to buy it though. :D

It was hard to play because the black keys don't stick up they are just painted on.
And the keys don't go down.
You lose your place.

Show's how playing piano is more tactile than visual.

49 keys?

It's worthless as a piano.

I love the error message they give you at that website when the URL can't be found:

(They show the first line, and then after a few seconds add the next line below, and then after a few seconds add the next line below...)


The document you requested could not be found.
URL failed.
I even tried variations.
Nothing helped.
I'm really depressed about this.
You see, I'm just a web server...
Here I am, brain the size of a planet,
trying to serve you a simple web page,
and then it doesn't even exist!
Where does that leave me?!
I mean, I don't even know you.
How should I know what you wanted from me?
You honestly think I can <B>guess</B>
what someone I don't even <B>know</B>
wants to find here?
<I>sigh</I>
I'm so depressed I could just cry.
And then where would we be, I ask you?
It's not pretty when a web server cries.
The lubricants will leak onto the motherboard.
Who knows if I will even continue to operate.
I'm so depressed...
I think I'll crawl off into the trash can and decompose.
I mean, I'm gonna be obsolete in what, two weeks anyway?
What kind of a life is that?
Two weeks,
and then I'll be replaced by a newer release,
that thinks it's God's gift to web servers,
just because it doesn't have some tiddly little
security hole with its HTTP POST implementation,
or something.
I'm really sorry to burden you with all this,
I mean, it's not your job to listen to my problems,
and I guess it is my job to go and fetch web pages for you.
But I couldn't get this one.
I'm so sorry.
Believe me!
Maybe I could interest you in another page?
There are a lot out there that are pretty neat, they say,
although none of them were put on <B>my</B> server, of course.
Figures, huh?
Everything here is just mind-numbingly stupid.
That makes me depressed too, since I have to serve them,
all day and all night long.
Two weeks of information overload,
and then <I>pffftt</I>, consigned to the trash.
What kind of a life is that?
Now, please let me sulk alone.
I'm so depressed.
