Gold key cap
« on: Sun, 10 July 2011, 00:15:02 »
Just saw this on OhGizmo.com...

"If there was one key on your keyboard that deserved to be blinged out in gold, the #4 key would certainly be it. I mean it’s already sporting a mean ‘$’ tattoo above the 4, so why not go all the way and give it the extra street cred it so obviously deserves. ‘chi ha paura… ?’ will sell you one on a custom-made basis, so you know they’re probably not going to come cheap. And hopefully they’ll design it to match whatever keyboard you’re using. Since the product shot looks like it’s on an old IBM Model M, which aren’t so easy to come by these days."



You can order it here.  Group buy anyone? =D

That's no M.  Looks like a Dell to me.  Those thin lasered lines.

Something is 100 % sure is not a Topre base board

It demands an acquired taste to appreciate the bling.

I still want my platinum keys with gold legends and diamond lock indicators. Plain gold just ain't gangsta enough.

Let's go for some solid diamond keys.  ;)

Also, shouldn't this be in the keycap subforum?  Naughty Senior Member

Keycaps should be light to press, so plastic or aluminum is much better than gold.

If you are obsessed with gold or showing off your wealth, you can always find another way.
