Hi
After lurking for two weeks I finally registered. I found my love for tinkering with hardware again.
I still can't typ 100% blind, because I work with Windows at the office and most of the time PuTTY with UNIX/tmux/vi, have a Mac at home and play games on a PC. I have to rotate between ASCII and German-Layouts for Mac and/or PC and it's driving me crazy.
For quite some time I had to work with those cheap light Logitec keythingys because I didn't want to transport a heavy keyboard with me. Additionally I have installed all those software tools that allow you to change key maps and settings and stuff on a Mac and Window, but they often do not do what I wanted and it is not consistent over different operating systems.
All those years I dreamt of keyboards (or modify my HHKs) that just do what I think they should do and can't be controlled by silly computers
Why are todays keyboards still so 1920s? I mean it's a device many people need to interact with computers daily, for hours.
Now I found your awesome forum. You people have basically already done all the stuff years ago, I still thought didn't exist.
So what did I do the last two weeks?
I cleaned my HHK's after 10 years for the first time. They are now clean and shiny again, have o-rings in them to damped the release sound. And I bought blind keycaps to force me to typ without cheating.
But most importantly I am adding now a new controller.
So I have to go back drilling holes into my HHK's.
No worries! I love my HHKs and will keep them until I die, so no need to do reversible mods.
