Anyone know anything (or hazard a guess) about these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Bloomberg-UK- ... 2a5701bd63

OK, thanks for the heads-up!

Interesting auctions on reddit, booth from the same seller:

It's the same guy I mentioned before, but on reddit his stuff is much cheaper.

Not often you see these Tipros with the alpha section at the bottom.

I got one of those in my Secret Santa gift. Sad to admit I haven't played with it yet.

My daily driver is based on the same, with a 64-key modul attached on either side.

Spoiler:

And every single key (even the spacebar) is freely programmable.

I have a Tipro with a alpha secction but with so ugly stagging that is impossible to write in ...

That's probably not the same as the one on offer here, but rather the KMX version, where the CapsLock row is staggered by 0.5 instead of 0.25 unit.

Is it easy to replace cables ?

If so i want that !

[kbdfr]

Make your own cable by just removing the small plastic side at one end of a normal male/male PS/2 cable; this will be the keyboard-side end, the unchanged end being plugged into the computer.
Be aware you will need a 32-bit system in order to program the keyboard (but you will be able to use it on any system).
It has Cherry black switches, by the way.

[andrewjoy]

Ahh so it has a ps2 port on it ?

Cool , will be going for one

[Muirium]

Heh, it has a "PS/2" port on it. You'll find out!

(I wouldn't go for any Tipro that isn't USB. The software on the old ones also requires 32 bit Windows running native on old hardware. Not your Retina MacBook, or mine!)

[kbdfr]

It has a PS/2 port where you can plug in another keyboard, and a 8-pin port (where only the 6 contacts corresponding to a PS/2 cable are used but the 2 not used sit where the plastic tab would otherwise fit) for connection to the computer:

[andrewjoy]

COOl!

Now i just need a small one to extend it for a number pad and to get out my roller mouse and i can be just like the Tiproman!

[kbdfr]

I have placed my number pad in the upper right corner of the main unit, as I prefer moving my hand upwards rather than sideways.
My configuration requires a 1u Backspace, though, but it didn't take very long to get used to it.

No problem when one has a completely programmable keyboard

[seebart]

No problem when one has a completely programmable keyboard

...with what approx. 475 keys?

[kbdfr]

Only approx. 250 keys (more than 200 being used on a permanent basis).
How would you call that? A 150%?

[seebart]

How would you call that? A 150%?

Yeah for you that's a 150%! Anyway that's a good joke, you got me laughing over here, thanks!

And now for a constructive contribution:

Cherry blue switches and a magnificent doubleshot number pad.

[scottc]

I have that same matrix board with those numpad keycaps and I can confirm that they are indeed magnificent!
