Steampunk - ON topic

Bah! That is just a sewing machine with some pipe fittings stuck on.

Then there is the wide wide world of steampunk nerf guns. My DH found out about those and now I have nerf stuff, wierd hardware, and cheesey antiqueing and faux finish kits scattered about my kitchen. He had already turned half of the room into a mountain of strange stuff, now the wierdness is leaking into the cooking zones. I may have to threaten to withold mincemeat at this rate.

While the world may be saved by steam, most steampunk stuff has never seen the slightest hint of water vapor. The people who design the mods are just trying to make the stuff look like it could be a clockwork or steampowered thing.

Yeah, I've seen that laptop and a couple of others before. I'm always amazed at how detailed those people can get!
