If I remeber correctly, Webwit (black duck) had two Industrial SSK and was hording it like the crown jewels.

I have two NIB (broken rivets et al) SSKs hidden somewhere in some drawer where I can't find them....tried to find a NIB/NOS Industrial SSK but sadly no luck for me.

Lucky you.

Just dropping in a new Alienware keyboard is not so simple. The laptop has to be nearly fully disassembled in order to remove the screws that's holding the keyboard, I didn't actually count but it's about 60 screws from a total of 94. I see no point in replacement with a new keyboard only to have to...

Ten years ago, if someone said I'd modded a rubber dome KBD, I'd called them a liar and spat in their eyes......but last week, that's exactly what I'd done, modded a rubber dome, not spat at someone. Two keys on an Alienware laptop felt unusual, now and then stuck. After prying off the caps for insp...

Preferences are purely subjective. Having purchased a NIB/NOS SIIG MiniTouch (Made in Taiwan) Monterey Switches (Blue, clicky) over a decades ago, I have no regrets and still unable to find a better keyboard as replacement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CGJ4dtgKVI If you like this keyboard but un...

I always remember you having two Industrial Model M SS kbds, IIRC you sold one of them.

Ah yes, I'm still alive but maybe not so much of the kicking nowadays.
Hope you are keeping well.

Greetings, How much would two IBM Model M Space Saving keyboard, new in original box purchased over a decade ago from an ebay seller Computerw2k then put into storage, be worth today. It comes complete with some broken plastic rivets inside (I heard it rattling prior to storage) but that's the natur...

I so very much like to love Lenovo's chiclet keyboards, I did try very very hard to even like it but....... There's a red dome model which was found inside a Thinkpad X220. It has been reported this particular red dome model is rather temperamental, it likes to stay put and if removed to be transpla...

This Post reminds me of a Geekhack member by the username of Lowpoly who spent a couple of years asking for opinions for his project build for forum purchase. He received much input and encouragement but at the end of the day, some Korean built his keyboard and put it on the market.

....... It's annoying if I can't remove it. Yes, quite annoying and pointless. I have tried to remove it but quickly gave up. ...... obviously, great care needs to be taken to not damage the PCB. You've just reminded me of a tool I had purchased a long time ago specifically to remove a bolt due to ...

There are many ways to remove glue, it all depends on what type of glue. If you accidentally make a scratch, use 3000 grit emery paper on that rectangular patch. I too have an Omni-Key but not the Ultra which I purchased from a Canadian many years ago. These Northgate KBDs are extemely solid, double...

All I want is a premium build quality, full size, wireless Nano reveiver, 3 button Optical mouse........................without all those superfluous gimmicks, without all those "my ego is bigger than your ego" built into it.

Can you use both hands for the mouse?

The options to select one answer seems prejudiced, I mean............there's no input option for those people who have no hands.

With due consideration to wireless technology advancement over the years, why does the manufacturers still tie up all these mice or make them so tiny that its unusable. I've been looking for a full size mouse with this simplistic design for what seems like eons, 3 button mouse will be even more suit...

The MS Wireless Optical 2000 fitted my large paws comfortably.
On hindsight, the disk receiver is a better option than a USB stick receiver as the stick protrudes out further on the Laptop. A nano receiver would be perfect since in all my Years, Bluetooth just doesn't seem to like monkeys.

No flaming please as this is my personal preference, others choice may be different. Have used many mouses in the past, many lasted several Weeks, some lasted a few day and a couple lasted a few Years. I have now regressed to using a Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse 2000 with a ThinkPad T60p typing ...

I would rather say a Topre is a rich man's Buckling Spring................depending on the Manufacturer IBM or Unicomp as there are still some NIB IBMs floating around but they're not cheap

I have a Monterey Minitouch. Absolutely love the feel, possibly more than MX blues. Not a huge fan of the Minitouch layout though. Would love to get my hands on a Chicony. I have a Monterey Chicony.

We want KMAC on my desk !!!

I salivated all over the laptop.......................miss something good while away, hope...........

The outline of this mouse has an attractiveness bordering to sensual, the hour-glass curves reminds me of the figure similar to.................................................ah, yes, a Coca Cola bottle.

I'm using a MX518 and will definitely purchase a G400 even if it's just to compare.

There's the microsoft wireless optical 2000, it works, no cord, nice demure click, comfortable to use but be aware that the transmitter is a little over-size (some people find it aesthetic). I find the plastic shell to be much more durable than the rubberized material used in the construction of mos...

Buy the Mrs a TouchScreen monitor, get rid of the mice. If that still doesn't get rid of the RSI, then go get a different Mrs.

Cannot go wrong with the Logitech SetPoint software, it just works, works and works.
MX 518 is good............in every way.

Maybe coincide the meeting with the Keukenhof flower festival and also include a tour of the canal booths, sure to attract many flower loving Homo Sapiens.

Not worried or bothered, all good things will eventually come to an end........ to make way for better things to come, I hope

I would love such a cat.....................................................but it may not be as tender as a dog. Dogs are also more delicious.

I have no inkling of the OP topic, what's it about ?

Tried to register Yesterday and Today but to no avail. I think there may be more to it than just spambots, to be protective of oneself is only natural.

Sehr viele Leute scheinen in der Schule Deutsch zu wählen. Warum? Ich finde es eine relativ unnütze Sprache. Das ist an eine Situation in meinen Grundschule-Tagen Erinnerungen wachrufend, als ein bestimmter Junge dem Rektor vorhatte, dass er Mandarine lernen mochte. Wie es nur zwei Schüler mit jede...

There requirement to register does not necessarily promote security, these " some guys" can just register and take peeky boos. Where money and prestige are involved, there's sure to be some skullduggery.

Forgive my indulgence, everyone has been comparing it to the HHKB Pro, I just want to see these two.
This 356 Mini has 1 extra key ?

Maybe when Webwit gets the 356 Mini...............
