I bought this case a couple of years ago after this article was linked here. I love it. It's beautifully engineered. Top quality. It sits at the corner of my desk proudly silent. I…

Dare I say it but perhaps some sort of natural language input would be interesting here. If the software was primarily driven by a command list back-end, had a bunch of semi-preset…
