Nice! And really doesn't look all that dated.

It doesn't look dated? I can't think of any contempory ads that resembles this, but that is the charm.

I thinks this ad should take care of a lot of the "Is it safe to…" threads

It doesn't look that dated. Barring the addition of a wireless connection my typewriter isn't all that different to the one in the ad.
