First reply!

(Again.)

Voted - easy one this time :)
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Ghostjuggernaut's Deathkish = Sex on a stick... But you better be a damn fine touch typist...
This is a perfect example of making keyboards pretty because you don't have to actually look down at them... LOL  :rolleyes:

27's RS78 = My favorite layout of the month.
It's compact, yet practical, and has a unique left side cluster that reminds me of old school function key positioning. I like much!

kiwi99's custom Matias Clueboard = My favorite color set.
I went with anodized (blue) aluminum with wood between too! I love this!  :p

Man... This is a tough one, but I gotta vote for... one of them!  ;D

Haha! I LOLed!  :))

That Clueboard is so sessy  :-*

I love the idea of a bamboo core with the black powdercoating. It's very simply aesthetically pleasing unlike a lot of the layered customs I've seen lately.
