Abney Parkare horrendous. Truly, spectacularly abysmal.

I don't get the Yngwie reference.

Does that amp come with a few doses of Laudenum?

i'm not sure if its that bad, if you just take it off the stool it'd probably look pretty classy  8)

Oh I meant the band it's for.

I think that amp itself is completely daft, but quite charming.

I could imaging Yngwie playing it - you know, big banquetting table, candelabra, mood lighting...

I like it, it would be good to have maybe a 1/2 watt version in the living room.

Mind you, I'd have to change all my furniture to match.  And probably move house too.

Haha, the first time i looked at it i thought it was some form of old clock.

thats completely terrible.
what is punk about steam punk?
that just sounds like some industrial band with a new gimmick.
lets pretend to be from victorian england instead of being gothic ghost cowboys or something.

The punk doesn't refer to the musical genre, it refers to the literary genre.

Steampunk just looks daft when it's not in a film or anime.

Though this computer does look interesting...

It wasn't until you said that that I had any idea what this "steampunk" concept was all about!  So there's a name for that "high-tech but 19th-century looking" thing, now I get it...  :)

Now that is what the Aristasians would call an "ordinator".
