Same applies to steering wheels in cars, but nobody seems to mind :lol:

I'm not a car man, but yes it makes sense since there is no wheels in race cars like Formula1 :)

The reason why in F1 cars they look the way they do is because there is no space for a real steering wheel. You should better look at Rally cars, they have a real steering wheel and a mark to see where the 0-position is.

Looks like a BMW-branded erogo-keyboard from Intel.

Yes, only 4 EUR. It is a small keyboard it it is said to be very strudy, so it can ship like a postcard, with some stamps on the backside.

So what is wrong with that Industrial M13?

A little crack here and a little crack there. Fossala did not pack those keyboards well. One victim was the M13.

Does ordering keyboards count against the overall ranking on 7bit's group buys?

Also, why is there a NumLock key on a SSK?

1. Score!
2. For the built in numpad on the keys around I.

Ah, I had missed the numbers on the picture. Thanks! Not sure I can beat you on the ranking though ;-)

It was 12 days from ordering to 7bit reporting it had shipped, and 13 days from then until it arrived at my door. There were a couple days of avoidable delay since I forgot to include my name in the shipping address, but I paid on time and in full and all my items were available. Also keep in mind that I am in the US so I would expect such inexpensive shipping to take a while.

Thick enough?

Anyway, you should put some sphericals on this.

Hey 7bit, did you get my order for plate mounted blues before they went out of stock (26 of them, order no. 560). If that's what's holding it back can you swap them for PCB mounted ones?
Thanks!
