Definitely a weird and useless computer mod for me, the PC Piano that is currently making its round in eBay has caught the attention of many geeks. Just when the PC and Mac worlds are developing mini-computers, here comes the computer piano. It’s not a piano connected to a computer but rather a computer installed inside a piano. Whoever did this must love music so much that he’d choose a piano over an ordinary computer table.

I wonder when this will sell and who will be the weird one to really buy such.
