What would be neat is to use the keyboard tile and computer screen brick to
make a virtual image of a LEGO computer.  But then we not only have the
issue of trade dress, but copyright violations!  Why don't we just turn the
bricks upside down, and show off the patented tubes?  Argh!

But we could design our own keyboard tile (w/ all the letters even) and a
computer screen w/ a 2X3 brick on it!  But you'd still have the problem with
smaller icons.

I thought about that.  The problem is, ldraw.org *doesn't* do pieces which
aren't real-world LEGO.  Funny colors, maybe.  Fake pieces, never.
