Yeah, I caught that bit, and back to back it is noticeable. Problem is 5-10 minutes apart I got no idea which beep I'm hearing ...(I should probably mention my hearing sucks)... So I just kind of (mentally) tuned out that part of the feature years ago.
Obviously the deactivating itself would not be ideal... possibly for that reason, it does have a setting: press numlock key for 5 seconds to activate.

I never did figure out what was deactivating it or why, it was just constantly, suddenly not there. But hay WTH, I just enabled it now to see what'll happen this time. Perhaps it will stay on.

Ah, yes ... I remember Pong well. And after sitting here watching the video and playing with the keyboard for the last 5 minutes, I do believe you're right. They do indeed seem to match perfectly.
