Dubmood & Zabutom, I keep listening on dubmood's hour long remixes and live performances, until I need quiet for deep concentration. To me it seems zabutom brings the best out of dubmood, they seem to fit. I wish I could find more music by zabutom, or some list of good chip music, not something like...

Did you get it yet? Please, let us know how you feel about it.

I had a black M13 a long time ago, which worked fine with a powerbook using a USB converter. But, I think it was finicky on regular PCs, perhaps because the mac would give more power over USB than specified by the USB standard. I still have this problem today with some keyboards using PCs and laptop...

Necrobump! A bit of an update. I managed to snag one of these for 75 from ebay the other day, bargain as they're 500+ in the shops. http://cdn01.trixum.de/upload2/36800/36770/1/16e705f1bbcfce5b42ac0239c20886986.jpg I've been using it for about 4 days now and I absolutely love it! I think the main p...

My lower back was killing me until I found the right chair, an aeron. I know it's cliché or what ever, but the pain I had been living with for a year disappeared in two weeks sitting in one of those. Next up is an envelop table, that should take care of the shoulders.

Ops, didn't see the stickers, it's chinese, nwm.

Clear caps are nice.

Design is not open for debate or suggestion, it's something you provision to an artist. That artist might or might not delegate that task to one of his students, under his or hers guided supervision, but that is not up to you. The important thing to realize is that you're not the artist and you neve...

Hi jim, I think you should get a uTron

On another note, I got a keyboard returned from an uncle who didn't need it, it's a g80-3000 with red-switches. It's in china though, so if someone wants it there's the cost of posting it to deal with.

Could be a hammer stuck under its casing, so just open it and be extra careful mounting the bottom plate. Saves some time if you secure the plate with clamps before securing it by bending over the tab, because then you can flip the keyboard over and check that all keys are in working order (by tappi...

Cause it was disgusting and I just reacted, it was a moment of sheer and troublesome emotions. I didn't know what to do.

Necro-posting cause the keyboard went completely dead today. I wasn't about to send it back to Japan and deal with all that hassle so I decided to disassemble it and debug it on my own. First I tried to pry it open from beneath the keyboard but realized that the bottom plate is not fixed in place by...

I've had a lot of IBM / lenovo laptops in the past: a20 / a20m / a30 / X200 / X201 / X220. The keyboards have been getting worse since lenovo took over. In my opinion that's simply because lenovo is a Chinese company and in China the most important thing is money / cost. I know this since I've live...

Check this out: http://www.braun-phototechnik.de/en/products/detail/~id.781/Graphic-Tablet-Tavla-12.html "A natural, easy-to-use replacement for a mouse or trackball. A creative tool that will make your PC a source of endless fun." That sounds like a done deal, except it would be a chore for me to t...

What if scrolling or clicking is the main cause of problem. Then if you use both hands you reduce the strain on a single hand by 50%. I don't think there is an ergonomic pointing device which reduces the strain by 50% when used by the same problematic hand/wrist. Just an example, Logitech Performan...

That seems like a juvenile shit advice to me, but allow me to explain why; Cured mouse problems for me. I'm convinced that most ergonomic mice are placebos, which actually tend to work because of an introduced side effect: variation. Variation is not only a valid cure against RSI - it is taking the...

After remapping the layout, I'm not using pinkies much and typing code is a lot more fluent. Mind sharing? Didn't do an analysis that would fit everyone, just picked the first key I usually have problem to hit correctly and took it from there. I guess something might be useful, like having tab a.k....

A name describing what you've modded sounds reasonable, but that's just me.

Where did you get the μTron and how much did it cost? I'm in Europe and I'd love to check it out but importing one from Japan will be a bit too expensive for me :/ I got it imported from Personal Media corp. They have page for international customers here: http://www.personal-media.co.jp/retail/ind...

Apple][ font looks pretty viable, do you know if there's any TFF or pcf copy of that font?

So trying out Topre keys would be good, alright. What about buckling spring? Would they be too hard to push? Not the buckling springs on Model F AT anyway, I've been typing on those from morning to night everyday for years and my fingers never complained. Can't say the same for Model M, it bothers ...

45g Topres are nice, you could try those. I've been using a μTron having 45g topre for a couple of months for programming. While the switches feels great (well some say they aren't, but I don't have anything to complain about, they're just soft and sweet to me), what really makes programming slick i...

...some brooks with springs and single gear on a panasonic steel frame. .... What panasonic ? They used to make some real nice frames over the time... :drool: Shimano M900 cranks ? :geek: It's a matsushita national frame, with polished shimano 600 cranks. Got it for spare change and never checked o...

I thought something fishy was about to happen when Aftonbladet (ironically nick named the "evening tramp") announced they'd employ him as a columnist. A silly political correct propaganda machine promoting a radical, it was just too surreal to be believable. Really didn't expect it would be a honey ...

Biking far away is like a crack addiction...my long-hauler got sturmey archer drum breaks in polished aluminium, crow spoke patterned wheels, some brooks with springs and single gear on a panasonic steel frame. Very smooth with no vibrations, sound or friction. Been around Africa, Asia and Europe on...

The IBM VGA font wins every time.

Strange, a nobody like me got modded on GH. I was just about to explain what the asian baseball guy's t-shirt said (in one of your numerous posts) -- well here it is: "the ball is round and red~~~", oh well...

Never mind.

I've not checked out the 3M vertical mouse, thumb buttons could be it though. So that's a good advice, changing to left side isn't a sound possibility (not a reluctance) since keyboards rarely are left sided, thus your possiblities are limited, and then even if they were not, it wouldn't lessen the ...

Use the left hand. That seems like a juvenile shit advice to me, but allow me to explain why; A long time ago my bread and butter was playing ice hockey, unfortunately to me, my right wrist developed a cyst and the joint was troubled by pain. Some said it messed with my play so I started to look fo...

Here's another one
