Also, I love their hybrid English/German documents. So typical for Germans.

No Funktion!

Its very... unusual. I can't speak for the mouse use yet, since it uses a giant 25 pin connector. They do provide the pinout though, maybe it can be converted?

My favorite switches in order: 1. Topre 2. Cherry red 3. Cherry clear IMO, PCB-mounted reds have a feel that is slightly similar to Topre (I believe mainly because I almost always bottom out when I type). However Topre just has the absolute best feel to me. PCB-mounted clears are nice too, although...

Problem is that if you remove a spring from a switch, that switch will count as always on. So if you wanted to use it, you would either have the firmware ignore it entirely, or do not solder it in.

You are right. I think that will be very uncomfortable for daily work though... double switches are nasty business.

It is 400 dpi btw.

Yes. If the "mouse" LED key is active, it acts as a mouse. If its off, it acts as cursor keys to the according position... really funky.

PS: Scanning all the manuals in a bit. Doubt many are interested, since there is not much to see, but just for preservation!

Also forgot entirely.. I still have a bunch of stabilizers left. How many do you need? If you keep your current design I think you will need 8.

Probably scissors. Then again... most kids would not take long to break scissors. Maybe its a rubber dome with ultra thin domes?

Sorry, had to look it up, proper syntax is:

In my years of collecting Cherry vintage products, I came to the conclusion that this is perhaps the most rare Cherry keyboard, released to the mass market. Definitely more rare even so than the G80-5000 Ergo-Plus. First announced in December 1990, the Cherry Mouseboard was revealed and reviewed at ...

Topic Prefixes/Tags are now available in some sections of the forum. You can select them from the drop down menu, where they apply.

Nintendo announced that they will be releasing a new Pokemon game, which will be released for the Nintendo DS rather than the new Nintendo 3DS. The game, entitled "Battle Get! Pokemon Typing", will include a fully functional Bluetooth keyboard, which will be used across the game for various tasks. n...

I changed the script. If you click the image now it opens in a new window instead of the lightbox as before.

I just noticed that posts break when the "no script" guys post images inline too! lol! See bugfix's QWERTZ topic in the keyboard section.

I like it. Actually I am 100% sure its possible. You could even make it yourself even (assuming you can live with a wrong legend on the backslash key)

I see no reason for having js disabled since about 10 years or so as well. Back then the web was full of stupid popups, no rightclick scripts and all that type of lame bullshit. Nowadays that is not the case, and some of the most impressive web technologies rely on it. I have no more reason to blame...

you guys have js disabled?

I think the black border is to much of an isolating stamp. The grey and white tends to flow naturally into the other. Perhaps instead of throwing everything to the right, you could simply give the user info area a 1 pixel border in a slightly darker grey than than user info background, just to brea...

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

Now we just gotta figure out why it entirely breaks in Opera. I just tried it again here and can confirm the bug.

Set text-align to left in the CSS (not live yet, just on the dev version), looks much better imo:

I'm not entirely sure what happened either, but I know it has to do with the OCN rule "we own everything you upload" and someone uploading ripster's pics to their keyboard megathread without asking for permission. When ripster then pointed out that he should at least be credited, he got some answer ...

More changes: The wiki now uses the unified login with the forum. Cookies are not shared, so you have to login to the wiki separately. However, you do not need two accounts anymore and can just login with your forum account.

Not sure. In the spirit of a wiki it should be fine. If you use any of ripsters pics, make sure to ask him for permission though. He became quite paranoid after the OCN megathread incident.

Custom profile fields have been added to the board, you can set them in your user control panel. They will then show up in your detailed profile accordinigly:
