I have a tiny Casio VL-10 calculator keyboard, and since my cam lacks a macro I wanted to steal a pic from the net...
... well, I got what I deserve :oops:
stumbling across this page about the even more rare VL80
I already paid 50 Euro for the stylish thingy above (it's aluminium) - don't even wanna think about one I didn't know until an hour ago, but can I leave the collection unfinished ??? :o

here's a stylophone and that obsure calculator in action, performed by Kraftwerk

and some details about those Casios, very interesting with internals exposed

great clip Tom, thanks :-D
it's still amazing that these guys had the guts to develop their weird and challenging musical concept so consequently back in those rock('nroll) days...when I was just discovering the black roots of sixties rythm and blues...
the Kraftwerk remixes show how relevant they were for the electronic dance music ages later.
kids and toys...
