I want a Cherry G80-8XXX board with the numpad replaced by macro keys, with MX browns and NKRO, in black, with less PCB flex, with an Fn key instead of Windows, a standard ANSI horizontal enter, with hardware reprogrammability for every key including the alphanumerical section, and for the ctrl, alt, shift, and Fn, and combinations. And a USB hub instead of a credit card scanner.



Oh, and a limitless supply of fine food, wine, and willing women would be nice as well.

kthxbye

I know where you can get one but I got this information in a top secret meeting with Cherry representatives so I can't tell you. However, I will tell you how cool I am that I claim to have knowledge nobody else has and then pretend I can't reveal it to feel superior.

Yay for misinterpretation.

"Confidential" is what they told me. Happy birthday by the way.

Consider this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Cherry-Credit-Card-KeyBoard-POS-USB-MX8100-MX-8100-/200493085915?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eae51b4db#ht_3098wt_930

MX8100, standard enter key.
You can program the numpad into macro keys via autohotkey (not that hard)
Should have NKRO.
You can fix PCB flex by opening the case and putting say foam tape or foam stickers into the area where the PCB hits the case.  I can show you pics if you want.  You can remap the Windows to Fn via autohotkey, someone has already done this here somewhere.  Hardware reprogrmmability not so much, it would be all software.  Usb hub?  You're out of luck with this one.
