since everybody except jou forgot to mention; you know you need a ADB converter to use an Apple keyboard right ShivaYash? The Griffin iMate is nice but not cheap and somewhat hard to come by. The TMK solution cheaper. I believe there are other ADB adapters out there.jou wrote: ↑TMK has a ADB converter which I'm using for my AEK2:https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard/tre ... er/adb_usb
I don't live in UK, so I don't know about taxes, but the board is under 4lbs so shipping shouldn't cost too much.Muirium wrote: ↑Shipping from Texas (plus god awful UK taxes) is always going to cost more than the keyboard, mind.
Right, these guys are not my friends and I try to avoid them...Muirium wrote: ↑But they're the government, so it's not criminal…
sounds elegant, like they're doing good deeds. That's an impressive building. They got their stash in there...and they got chains on their logo.Muirium wrote: ↑At least they've got a catchy name. Here they are Her Majesty's Customs & Excise.
That's no fun. You have to start by slowly angering them. Growing your army gradually. Find out which city-states they ally with, and ally with them yourself or intimidate them. Expand near their borders and steal their land with your Great Generals. Denounce them and vote against their proposals to World Congress. Eventually they'll become angry enough to declare war on you theirselves, and you'll have no choice but to retaliate, but at that point you'll be strong enough to take them. Split their empire down the middle, plundering all of their trade routes, and rendering both halves helpless.Muirium wrote: ↑I'd never make mistakes like that in Civ.

I like the keycaps on the AEK II marginally better, but the case and overall build quality on the AEK I better. The foot design on the AEK II is “innovative”, and useful if you want arbitrary height adjustment, but in practice isn’t very effective, and gets broken very easily.alh84001 wrote: ↑I was under the impression that AEK II was "best" of the bunch and thought it was kinda implied by the wiki.
I like the M0116 better than either of the AEK’s. I also really like the Alps version of the Apple IIGS keyboard, wiki/Apple_Desktop_Bus_Keyboard – it’s very compact and solidly constructed.How does Apple Standard Keyboard compare to AEKs? Keycaps, switches, etc. Based on looks alone it would maybe appeal to me most, because it is more compact, with CTRL in its proper place and CAPS LOCK the right size.
The aggressive keycap profile is one of the biggest advantages to these keyboards. If you don’t like the legends, I recommend dyeing the caps solid black.And one more thing. Do different rows have different profile on these boards or are they all the same?
