Future home computer of the past

While cleaning my hard drive from old meaningless photos and other junk I stumbled upon this photo of the future, easy to use, home computer.

The steering wheel is just fantastic and I am still not sure what function they had in mind for such an apparatus except for releasing steam pressure from the water based cooling system.

One could only imagine how computers would look like in 50 years, most likely future generations will view my lovely macbook as a ridiculous object the same way we view this fancy computer concept put together by the RAND corporation back in 1950.

The concept of a keyboard has been out there for a while as the input method of choice. As we advance our knowledge in the field of VLSI or even possibly a totally different computing technologies that will unleash new processor speeds, we will witness a shift from physical input device to speech and gesture based input.
