Funny that you should scoff at a synthesizer, as you clearly enjoy the 
'sense of accomplishment' of playing your vintage synthi. Instant 
wonderous music, huh?

I think this Open Systems keyboard is ridiculous at best, but still 
represents a major moment in the history of electronic music instruments 
as it is the first dedicated keyboard sythesizer (that I know of ) which 
can access the internet! Of course computers, laptops and controllers 
have rendered synths useless to a certain degree,  but this Neko thing 
is a surely direct cousin of E-Mu Systems 1982 Emulator, and a distant 
relative even to EMS and Buchla... it is a synth... embrace your 
electronic music history!!
