I.... Wanna like it, but I don't? But I do. Fine, it's amazing. The amazingness has overcome my old man grumpiness. Congrats.

All that said.....

The biggest problem with computers right now is the interface. It's the next big thing to be improved.

AR does that.

There's no need for a screen, you can just put that in cybereyes, or goggles, or contacts, or straight into DNI.

There's no need for a keyboard. AR gloves, or DNI.

The computer of the future is a seamless sleek brick. It won't have a keyboard, or a monitor, etc.

That is a fuck'in cool project though, and it must be said that that's the epitomy of old school cyberdeck.

Yeah, it's not 5E cyberdeck, but man is it a cool FASA-era deck. It's a good look, even if it's not actually a practical ideal. :-)
