Easy, air that is heated by running in pipes though the computer wich once heated is pushed up through the spaces on the keyboard keeping your fingers nice and toasty. Kinda like a car heater, this will also get rid of all that annoying fluff, cat fur, salami and giant squids that may be lurking between the keys.

Seems like my firsty anno was already baked too. Great minds eh?, incidently the linked idea has another link to an even earlier idea. Is this a common occurance. What is the largest number of same ideas that have managed to exist on the bakery at one time?

I once wrote some software for a meat processing plant. While installing and training in a <40 degree F warehouse with a constant breeze blowing, my typing skills eroded quickly. This would be a handy thing to have in that environment (in any of its .5b incarnations, apparently now numbering 3)

[UnaBubba] I would have thought that its the perpetual 'Wouldn't it be really cool to strap buttered toast to the back of a cat, haha x' ideas.

Gulherme you could take the lead in voice recognition hardware.

No one yet is wearing "stylish wireless brooches" on their lapels with touch-on touch-off queing.

"Touch-on..." (brooch is activated)

"Computer,..Type..."

"Computer,...Annotate..."

Then your hands are placed where ever they stay warmer or your hands are free to play with your cat.

Sorry. That was a bit off your topic.

The point was to keep a sense of tactile intercourse and have hot fingers?
