Saw this on imgur, could be photoshop, could be troll. Could be some kind of keyboard controller integrated with heavy machinery?

Yeah, it seems like part of a bigger all in one solution.

It's also wierd that there is a floppy pic, and a DB pic one next to the other o_O. I don't know what the distinction of the two uses yould be.

Also, the last symbol indicates that something important moves up and down, to the point where you want to know when it's moving.

My guess is that the light is lit when the laptop's battery is charging. It is obviously not a light that is active only when the computer is turned on.

By the way, there are laptops that are driven by fuel cells. They have exhaust, usually in the form of water vapour. Did not really catch on... :roll:

What IS that thing to right of it? A garbage can? And why the stack of pancakes? I'm all SSD on my three portables (iPad, HP DM1z, and HP 510HD).

That's a hard drive, not a DB :P

Your battery is out of gas, insert more fuel!
