This would appear to indicate that someone in charge of product design at Pi HQ is a Gen X-er or Boomer desperate to relive computing history through their own products.

You didn't already know that the Raspberry Pi concept was inspired by the BBC Micro from the 80s?

Actually yes, but I didn't expect they'd go down the same avenues with the Pi.

I actually considered getting one of the computer-in-keyboard versions precisely because I'm of that same generation, but I couldn't justify the expense.
