(This is something keyboard-related and something I wanted to have for 15 years or so.)
Say hello to Canon Cat – a magical, forgotten machine from the late 1980s.pic.twitter.com/53XOnmYHsF
It was designed by Jef Raskin, the creator of the Macintosh project, after he left/was kicked out of Apple by Steve Jobs (who took it over).
In some ways, it’s an anti-Macintosh, a computer without a mouse or even arrow keys, based all on text.pic.twitter.com/gkhAbEBPTO
I learned about it from Raskin’s book The Humane Interface, one of the first HCI books I ever read.pic.twitter.com/OIYBYSidau
I was in love with this combination of art, scientific rigor, meaningful details, and taking nothing for granted.
Even the keyboard! Instead of Backspace, it has Erase. Instead Command or Alt, Use Front. There’s a key for Undo.pic.twitter.com/VxTiZogXyo
It has Leap keys to quickly move around – instant search under your thumbs. It’s one of the most exciting keyboards ever made.pic.twitter.com/aG2TI0NJxC
That system looks mint, but the keyboard fonts are making my eye twitch. Fonts on the function keys, keycaps, and fronts are all different.
The tops are two variants of the same Canon font. I agree the front could match, rather than go for Helvetica.
