Although I was never a fan of the man or his music it seems he also was quite ahead of his time in online services:

Is than an AEKII? And what is that computer/keyboard to the left?

Looks so. Hooked up to a DuoDock PowerBook docking station.

No surprise Bowie was a Mac user. But that other laptop isn't a Mac, given the keyboard right at the front of the case. Can't say I recognize it, but it'll be early 1990s in that format.

Say what you want about the man, but he undoubtedly had fine taste in keyboards.

Thanks to watching no tv and simply reading and listening to whatever I want instead, I've only positive thoughts about him. He's the man who made Let's Dance and Ziggy freaking Stardust. Lifetime artistic achievement unlocked!

Not to forget also Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence nor his participation in Twin Peaks, RIP mister B.

No, it's a 2 - the Apple logo is at the top not the bottom.

Yeah that's a AEK2 alright. Thanks for the link fohat, here's the clip viewable for everyone outside the US:

That is phenomenal.

Yup, brilliant video. Especially when you know he knew precisely what was coming. And naturally I appreciate his jazzy turn with this last album too.

Any of y'all familiar with Warren Zevon's "The Wind? Similar theme. He recorded and released the album when he learned that he had terminal cancer. Just take a look at who contributed for the album. Quite a list:
