I was really hoping someone had a built a replica of the Logic Memory Center complete with illuminatied Perspex "logic modules" or whatever they're called.
More like a "Life-Size Replica" of one of HAL's cameras. I was expecting the whole internal memory bank and associated. This is just disappointing.
What about the desk console from the pod bay? Or all those screens with 3 letters? They were all CRTs weren't they? On a side note, I was just thinking about how, "not forward thinking" the movies were for using something as outdated as CRTs... then I realized, In 2001, we WERE using CRTs!!!
Hmm. The video says it's from the 1967 movie. I wonder what movie? 2001: A Space Odyssey was released in 1968.

I could use a funny antidote after that!
When a version with a built in Arduino, mic, and camera comes out, maybe then I'll consider it.
I feared it was going to be hard to resist buying this. Then I saw the product video.
pretty awesome - but that's just the UI for HAL a full replica :p
