Writing an article showing how most successful companies always pivot, ending up making something very different from the original plan. Sony started with rice cookers. Apple with blue-boxes to try and beat the phone system. And I'm delighted that these Danes didn't succeed with the world's first keyboard. My first typewriter (an olivetti) was a standard requirement for any freelancer when I working with Austrian Radio (ORF) in 1977. First machine I purchased.
By the way, the article on the history of the Typewriter is really superb. Highly recommended reading.
