do you think sex in the 19th century was much different from today?

i mean, whenever I see these old b&w soft porn shots from a 100 years ago, I cant help but think that tastes were a bit different back then.

With each day of the year, having a different keyboard. Shouldn't be too difficult to round up 365 keyboards.

maybe people should submit glamor shots of their keyboards here, and whoever is putting the calendar together can select 365 of them :)

TMI and DMI, people!

I'm all for a calendar with keyboards.
I don't mind if the model is Richard Stallman even, as long as the keyboards are sexy ...

I think that the calendar should include:
 - Keyboards that a large portion of the membership think look good.
 - Keyboards that are special in some way.

I would like to nominate:
Beautiful keyboards: Sun Type 5 (awful to type on, but it sure looks better than most), the keyboard in Toshiba T5200 laptop (grey keys, Cherry blue switches btw)
Ergonomic keyboards: IBM M15, µTron, Maltron, Kinesis, Datahand
Significant, beautiful vintage keyboards: Any IBM beam-spring keyboard, Symbolics "Space Cadet" keyboard, VT100 terminal keyboard.
Sexy technology: Realforce 101.

Keyboards that I don't want in the calendar
- Any keyboard from Apple. I have only horrid memories from the older ones, and the newer ones are rubber domes.
- Anything by Microsoft. The keys feel horrible, and the company is definitely not sexy.
- IBM Model M, Dell AT101W, because they are too common and therefore not sexy.
- Any IBM 122 key keyboard, because they are so ugly. Sorry.
