More Molly Guards

> This IBM electronic typewriter had a gorgeous perspex molly guard around the power button

Creators of some keyboards placing a sleep button right above arrow keys didn't bother doing this.

The hover images were delightful thank you for that little bit of whimsy. Also the iTunes Burn CD one was my favorite! I totally forgot about that and its so fun compared to flat design.

I fully expected the origin of "Molly Guard" to be apocryphal, akin to something your boomer uncle sends you in 2008, that's been forwarded 1000 times and you can see all the fwd: address lists in the message ("Hey Susan, thought you might find this funny... -Bill"). I was not expecting to see the actual Molly in an archived newspaper article. Pretty cool.
