I definitely had a keyboard for my Dreamcast. It was my first internet enabled console, as well as my first exposure to online gaming with strangers (previously I had only done direct TCP/IP connections with friends on games like Diablo 1 and Starcraft). Phantasy Star Online was so damn addictive.
I learned how to type with this, at the age of 22 as a full time software engineer! I never knew how to touch type, but then I somehow landed a software engineering job. I figured I needed to learn, so I downloaded this and played it so much. Good times.
When the hell is season 2 of that going to arrive? I know a few months ago they confirmed it was in production, so hopefully soon! Such a great show, Nathan Fielder is the king of dead pan comedy.
I wish I remembered the actual product name but I recall there being, and people making fun of, this gnarly LAN party backpack that allowed you to carry your PC, a power supply and a fucking CRT monitor around on a rigid frame backpack to bring your entire setup with you everywhere.
One of the image macros floating around back then was of that thing with a rig attached so you could have your mouse and keyboard in front of you and the monitor held ahead of you from over the top allowing you to walk around playing Doom. 🤣
Nah man, if you ever had your meat beaten by your girl you should know that they are rough as fuck with your junk, it would hurt and if they have nails then god forbid you try it
I can think of exactly one person I’ve ever met that would use this. It was a dude in college who would walk across campus back to his dorm holding an open laptop in one arm and occasionally using the other hand to interact with it.
This was when you needed a PCMCIA card to have WiFi on your laptop, so it was probably new and exciting to have that mobility.
