RE: DIY Das Keyboard
it Might sound stupid, but when I saw your keyboard-pictures, it looked like my brain put over the keys... lol.. I saw it with the letters on it, very light though.. :P

And no, this is no bullshit, i'm not kidding... I'm deadserious..

Maybe this is because I have a very similair keyboard (with letters on it ;))

anways, here is a next idea once you get the hang of typing on that keyboard: purchase a flat touchpad keyboard (one where you simply touch a flat surface instead of pressing a button; you known like the heat induction cooking plates principle), and do the same with it. Then you only have a flat black panel on your desk :P (thus star-trek like, only without the lights and labels :P)

Hmm, that would indeed be cool. I wonder how annoying it would be to type on though :P

That sort of happened to someone else too...

code:
[18:12:52] <mezzanine> why is it more special?
[18:12:56] <segosa> omg
[18:12:56] <mezzanine> it's a regular keyboard
[18:13:00] <mezzanine> mine looks the same
[18:13:04] <segosa> eh
[18:13:06] <mezzanine> :\
[18:13:08] <segosa> you mean you can't see a difference?
[18:13:09] <segosa> :P
[18:13:24] <mezzanine> ??
[18:13:26] <segosa> you can't see the main differerence it has with other keyboards?
[18:13:26] <segosa> :|
[18:13:44] <mezzanine> the buttons are a little 'high'
[18:13:45] <mezzanine> higher than mine
[18:13:49] <segosa> :|
[18:13:54] <mezzanine> but the pics are so blurry
[18:13:57] <segosa> there are no letters on the keys!
[18:13:58] <mezzanine> wait
[18:13:58] <segosa> !!
[18:14:02] <segosa> noob :<
[18:14:05] <mezzanine> i JUST SAW THAT
[18:14:09] <segosa> rofl :\
[18:14:10] <mezzanine> on the link you provided
[18:14:16] <mezzanine> OMG

The previous sentence is false. The following sentence is true.

A strange thing, that human mind ;)

O.o that's pretty cool...i guess it would help your typing, i dont see why u dont just use metho to get the letters off though.

My keyboard is already stuffed, the numpad is on the left! i hate it

gonna get a new one soon hopefully...

This is one sure way to  test your typing skills, but apart from looking teh 1337, I don't see a point.

What would be sweet would be if the keyboard was intergrated into the desk, maybe even a holograpic projected screen into midair suspended on some kind of magnetic field, and a computer that's in the wall. That would be teh 1337, target : 2080 :cheesy:...

However typing would be really weird on a flat surface, but after a while, I think it would be ajustable.

lol, my keys are wearing away a little... :P

Although i'd probably get a letterless keyboard and forget where one of the letters was and be poking all over the keyboard to find it...
