daniel. please. for the sake of this discussion, let's not take things slightly out of context, in the sense of 'affixed', 'fixed', and even 'rigid' for that matter. webwit raised valid questions which i responded to. ask haata if i did or did not mention the 'visibility' part in a pm i sent him. i ...

i don't think i misunderstood him. let's take walter cherry for a spin (and for a spin i don't mean disrepect whatsoever, just as a starting point here). walter cherry came up with what it is, as of today, perhaps the most used (popular) switch in history. the question that lingers in the air, and t...

i think i mentioned the 'visibility' part before (maybe to myself). and as far as voting, i agree and disagree w/ webwit in that a category ought to have an affixed number , but then again, the whole purpose of subcategorizing becomes an obsolete afterthought remedied with vote counting. insofar the...

haata, hopefully you are not working on the missing fields. seventeen hours and forty six minutes later it was done, except the relation fields of the switches for each patent, that needless to say, need to be revisited. datahand, george risk, stackpole components, the singer company, just to name a...

I really liked the Pure but I'm from Brazil and I use the "~" a lot. I don't know if I could use the ESC key as a ~ and ` key. The actual key position (next to right shift) is really weird for me. I'm actually using a MX5500 KB and I'd love to keep the layout as close as this one. you can change th...

and as much as i like the ol' sun layoout on the pfu, it doesn't make any sense

cherry on the other hand, got it right.

this guy remapped it beautifully, and yet, as much as fujitsu tried tirelessly to put their best in the final product i personally think they could have done better than that ,

Vague? You? When? Someone who talks about social science in a keyboard forum does not seem vague to me. Cultural bias? But yet needed a spanking since he was a little boy.
