Photoshopped Future of the Past

So, it turns out that the 1954 vision of the 2004 computer which Presurfer linked was a skillfully done Photoshop job of a nuclear submarine manuevering room console, posted to a Fark Photoshop thread. I got taken in, but it should have been obvious on a closer look, with the ragged feathering on the left edge of that pasted-in teletype machine, and the too-sharp RCA television box floating there like a Photoshop layer with a drop shadow under it. Still, brilliant graphic work, and equally brilliant spotting from these Metafilterites.
