Hey, how about this?:
Happy Hacking Keyboard Wood (Natural Grain) Palm RestFor
$345 less (plus the shipping difference), you can get a cool HHKB
palm rest made of real wood. (I didn't even know they
had wood in Japan!) Then you can pretend you're typing on a HHKB—and even make clicking sounds with your mouth, which is always fun—and save all that dough!
Besides, having tried a HHKB, I can tell you first-hand, it's much harder and more complicated than using a regular board. With all those keys missing, you have to use combinations for nearly everything—not to mention the time and effort learning and getting used to them—so you end up doing a lot more work for the same results.
Most computer peeps are always looking for ways to do things with
less effort (and, of course, for stuff to
italicize). So for us, this compact, concentrated, cute but convoluted configuration seems contradictory, and I can't condone the cause for its conception, excluding the collection of currency for its creators.
Just thought I'd point all that out in case no one else had thought of it. Also, I've had coffee.
