Spread the word then. Your sig on geekhack seems to have brought quite a few users (including myself) here, just point as many people as you can here. Thing is that most forums have a policy about direct advertising of other forums. We have a few things going (including some stuff with some Europea...

You should increase the file size for avatars though.

Done!

It's hard to find more competent people than you guys when it comes to keyboards, I'm sure this will work out. That you're all based in Europe(?) might turn out to be an advantage. Heh, thanks :D The Europe part was part of the plan too. We opened the international sub-section for that reason. It s...

You can sometimes force it by pressing shift and the key next to it very fast. At least that way I was able to force it on my 55g Realforce. What happens is that the air channel in the membrane is pushed down (from the key you push before shift) and then can't properly release the air from the shift...

Any of you use "monitor arms" or "monitor mounts"? I am trying to find a good one that will work with my 24 inch. I ordered one of these from Amazon: http://i.imgur.com/sUYIz.jpg It is mounted on the table (good), but sadly does not support my 24 inch, so I had to send it back. Looking for suggestio...

Really? With your sun adjusted screen and your weird ergonomic datahand keyboard you are the ultimate hipster of computing!

If you have that thing running, I will no longer have any three page debates with you about "that RGB shade of green is not green enough" in the future ever again.

Okay, so now my screen looks orange... You will now resolve conflicts more easily... or something: From http://www.springerlink.com/content/g0882155n2838807/ "Effects of indoor lighting (illuminance and spectral distribution) on the performance of cognitive tasks and interpersonal behaviors: The po...

community is what we need afterall :) I seriously doubt that this will be a problem. Depends. The keyboard scene is still pretty small and most people hang around at other places already like you said. So this is an experiment to see if an alternative will work. We had the idea floating around for ...

genuinely believe that Logitech makes good keyboards. I remember that time of my live. The horrors. Know whats worse? Its worse if you threw away mechanical keyboards before, thinking they were old junk from your first computer. I remember throwing away at least one Model M, willingly about 10 year...

Here's hoping that no MIB wake you up at six in the morning and want their property back... hah, they can take it. And all the other rubber domes I have. Saves me the recycling fee! http://gadgetophilia.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/t10neuralizer.jpg "You never found out about mechanical keyboards...

Tried that for about 20 mins a while ago. Could not get used to it at all. Uninstalled due to oldman-syndrome. Too much of a change for me to adjust to.

It's a small step for man, but a giant leap for keyboard... no wait what?! Its still a freaking rubberdome. nasa1.jpg nasa2.jpg nasa3.jpg nasa4.jpg Anyway, the story about this one is that I picked up the board on eBay Germany a while ago. The one I received actually had no NASA logo and was in a te...

I've been looking for this for a while. I have two locations in the house were I access one computer, one location I use the DataHand, the other it varies, but usually something mapped to HHKB layout. But I need to manually toggle the remapping software, because it can't see different keyboards. Ye...

I also wish the girl was included, but I guess it would be hard to get her through the customs... even though she is kinda small.

Thanks for joining, community is what we need afterall

Wobei zumindest bei mir bis jetzt nur DHL an der Haustür kassiert hat. FedEx ist für mich zwar in Vorleistung gegangen, hat mir das aber auch als Rechnung zukommen lassen. DHL auch bei EMS Sendungen? Bei uns ist das so: EMS geht ab Deutschland auch über DHL, wird aber (jedenfalls hier) zolltechnisc...

http://i.imgur.com/aFP63.jpg http://i.imgur.com/f4iPm.jpg ^_^b ....anyway! How can you not want one of these after those promotional pictures? http://imgur.com/KCpfg.jpg I am happy to announce that our samples will be in transit tomorrow. I should be receiving mine sometime next week, so please loo...

Die zusätzlichen Gebühren sind entweder direkt an der Haustür zu bezahlen oder als separate Rechnung. Stimmt, guter Punkt. Generell würde ich auch immer dazu raten per FedEx oder DHL Express zu bestellen, sofern man es eilig hat. Bei uns landen alle EMS Sendungen immer im Zentral-Zoll Frankfurt und...

Software is currently missing in the main post, I'm waiting for permission from inornate to host them here. In the meantime, they can be dowloaded at OTD: Client, LibUSB Latest (64bit), Firmware 1.0.4., Bootloader.

Wow! You know, they could probably be used for other boards too as long as you keep the same Matrix.

If you are trying to find out the price for one of your boards and want an honest opinion, feel free to ask here. Post pictures too if needed. The answers should be honest and based on experience, not greedy intentions. I keep a personal database of average board prices across eBay and various other...

WORK IN PROGRESS The AIKON keyboard controller The AIKON ( A QUA + I nornate Kon troller) controller is a custom keyboard controller developed by OTD.kr members AQUA and inornate. Previously known as "AQUA'S LIMKB" (Less is more Keyboard Controller), it is the only fully customizable keyboard contro...

I think by now you should have pretty much a copy of every single Unicomp part? Could almost assemble one entirely from scratch.

And I thought it was the office firewall to blame for the cookies being denied.

The Idea This is something I had been wanting to do for a very long time! I love to have some extra keypads around my desk to accompany my main keyboard. I usually use them for non standard tasks, such as media keys to control my music or shortcuts in Photoshop. For a task like this most people wou...

There are over 270 different soft drinks on the market. Yet some people say Pepsi tastes better than Coke. Its good to have some variety.

We have kinda different goals and aim more at more experienced users. See it as an alternative home for those that feel the need for one, not as competition.

Reversing a keyboard matrix This article hopefully should give you a basic idea on how to reverse a keyboard matrix, so you can for example use a different controller such as the Aikon or a custom firmware on a Teensy. This will allow you to convert old, non pc-compatible keyboards to work with mor...
