Isn't Autohotkey for windows only?

I'd like to remap F keys on my Filco to the standard OSX media functions (volume up/down, spaces, eject, etc). I'd also like to set that useless Menu key as FN. I found these programs for remapping keys on OSX: - DoubleCommand http://doublecommand.sourceforge.net/ ; - KeyRemap4MacBook http://pqrs.or...

Now that's a beautiful color, imho!

I will get some samples from SP. Depending on you location I could send you some to try out for yourself.

Sure, I'd like to give them a try! (I'm located in Italy). I actually like the way they look, but what I need is a set that's fine for daily use, not just a conversation piece.

I'm looking forward to this group buy!

I never tried typing on sphericals, I wonder how it feels?

Me too!

The result is far from great, maybe I should put all the black modifiers back. I couldn't swap the right shift, which is much shorter on the Compaq, nor the left Caps Lock, which is off-center. Anyway! Cherry PBTs feel better than original Filcos, and they speak my language! I find it good enough as...

It's the adaptator for sure! I opened it to check up and I found a loosely soldered wire. This is bad luck! Maybe I could fix it if I had an iron, but I don't think I'll bother after all. I got my Filco tenkeyless today, so I'll just use that!

Great, the whole thing worked for about six minutes, then, for no particular reason, died. I can't seem to get it to work again! That's so annoying! When my Filco arrives, I'm just going to pull off those keycaps and cut all this nonsense!

My adaptator arrived today. It's exactly the same Gilgam suggested... now the keyboard actually works, can't say the same for the trackball though. The system detects it, but i can't seem to use it for some reason. Anything I can do about this?

What keyboard is that? It looks like an Apple ripoff...

Thanks Gilgam, I sent for an adapter like yours!

Thanks guys! I'll get a more reliable adapter and remap!

Today I bought a cheap-ass PS2 to USB adapter form my Compaq MX11800. The adapter looks just like this http://www.shopblt.com/cgi-bin/shop/shop.cgi?action=enter&thispage=01100200100179_BG08523P.shtml&order_id=!ORDERID! and was the last unit in stock at the local store. Please note that the MX11800 h...

The first red ESC key was the Big Red Switch (BRS).

Press for a Demo.

I was wandering when blank keycaps and red escs first became popular. I guess they both are kind of recent introductions? Blank keys are said to be aimed at professional typist, but I guess touch typing is as old as typewriters are, while I never happened to see old keyboards without legends. Do the...

I also PMd you to cancel my order, but I'm still in the list.

Grond 1xBlue Italy

I believe the picture is from 2009... anyway, it displays the same unit now sold by TKC. That looks bulky enough, and I find it quite expensive - yes that's cheaper than the Apple trackpad, but still!

Is the Filco Touchpad any good? Anyone owns or has tried one? I wasn't able to find any review for that unit...

I'd be in for PBT keycaps, and ISO layout too, if that turns out to be possibile. I also prefere to pay the shipping with the first invoice.

I didn't try, but it should. There is no USB n-key rollover, so I see no reason why it would not work.

Alright then! I'll get a Blue one, shipping to Italy, thanks.

Does it work on os-x?
