I was thinking of having separate halves (like the Utron) and placing the trackball in the middle. It could be too centered though.

I think it would make more sense to have the trackball fixed to one of the two halves, if you have halves. The problem is that if you offer a split layout, some people might want them split more than others, meaning the distance to the trackball (in the middle) would grow and might eventually end up unreachable without moving your hands.

Of course this is all another story if you only design the keyboard for yourself.

Good point, but I was mostly concerned with having the mousing arm in a comfortable position. Mine tend to be very close to the keyboard, but I can't try to have the mouse in the dead centre. If you have a totally split keyboard you could place a trackball to the left edge of the right keyboard.

Just a stupid question:

These industrial cases:

Are they currently available from Unicomp?

They were. I believe they are entirely sold out now.

The tops are sold out.

As for the RGB set on a Customizer - the shifts and Ctrls will fit, but the Alts on the Customizer are a smaller size to make way for the Windows keys.

I want a new forum feature: an icon for necromancy!

Posts that wildly disrupt timelines like these should be given a special bonus. And it'll make these threads easier to read as well.

Pop a ghost in on the left for any post that's >1.0 years after the previous one? With a hover attribute "Necromancer" and a link to an information thread that explains what this is about and why going necro can be good thing but usually isn't!

No more spare black labels, sorry.

black LED overlay. Looks so good... Do want.

edit. Didn't see the whole necro thing. My statement above still stands though. Unicomp doesn't show that style on their website.

Hopefully Unicomp will manufacture again those grey industrial cases...

I don't think they ever made them, just had some NOS.
