I forgot to take a picture, but here's one of my favorite key layouts from the 90s and I happily bought a replacement for it recently. It's a BTC model that has a split spacebar (the left half being backspace) and DUAL ARROW KEYSpic.twitter.com/CrgzuG0DDs
And somewhere I have this neat TS Microtech keyboard. It's not a full keyboard, obviously, but the idea was that it would be programmed with all the shortcuts for a given program and you could easily use it instead of remembering CTRL-ALT-F2 or whateverpic.twitter.com/Tzxmqyc8TG
I've also got this fun keyboard. Layout's pretty normal for a compact keyboard, but 1. some keys are relabelable 2. it has a magstripe reader!pic.twitter.com/qyfUYrliyZ
I really want to build some software that interfaces with that and lets me pay on websites with my credit card, no typing required. just swipe my visa and BAM!
and if we're gonna talk about unique keyboards, I've got one that can start fires.pic.twitter.com/Vbxi9X55QR
I can't find my pictures (so I'm using one from ebay), but I've also got a BAT keyboard. This is a chorded keyboard where you press combinations of keys to create single letters.pic.twitter.com/J3TBHz7XyZ
I'm not 100% sure I still have this one. The Pro-Tech industrial keyboard. Fully enclosed so it's waterproof and spill-proof, built in rugged trackball, and it's got a beeper in it so it can beep every time you press a key. Very broken, so I might have tossed it.pic.twitter.com/QOwXR9LJQP
And somewhere I've got this mini-AT keyboard. It's strange because they've used different key types for the function keys and insert/home/pageup/page down/escpic.twitter.com/kDTZDJ8zwf
I have a lot of keyboards. and I could easily have gone on for another 20 posts just with toy keyboards or another 30 with more boring keyboards
I’m interested in the more boring ones. ^_^
