Title: \KL DoubleShot keys
Post by: keyboardlover on Sat, 05 March 2011, 11:13:30

Hey folks! 7bit is offering \KL keys as part of the doubleshot group buy.

These keys are designed to replace your standard ANSI \| key, just above the Enter key. They have white text on a black key.

If you're interested, you can PM 7bit_vote with this:
KEYBOARDLOVER [# keys]

So if you want 5 keys it would be:
KEYBOARDLOVER 5

what does \kl mean exactly? Or is it just a personal thing?

Thanks 7bit!

No problem!

Price would be $0.90 per key if 25 are produced, so the whole load would cost $22.50, or $1.25 if 15 are produced ($18.75 in total) or $3 per key if 5 are produced ($15 in total).

Currently, we are at 9 keys, so price is now:

$1.8

LaTeX? \KL expands to Keyboardlover?

If it was like this:

I would buy one for sure but being white only it's not so funny, I may think about it :loco:

Did you think about green lettering to match the March Geekhack key?

Green on Ivory will look freaking awesome...!

White on black just seemed easiest and I thought more people would like it... :\

Thank you!

Do you want the text centered or off-center?

This is what I will send to SP (quantity might change!):

Yes, take as many as you want!

Your avatar would not be double-shotable, I'm afraid.

What about a 2.75 units Shift key with "guilleguillaume" on it?

I'm off for holly days until Sunday 20th March 2011!

The vote-system will work without me. Just send your order lists to me, 7bit_vote.

You will get some statistics from time to time.

Don't ask 7bit or me any questions during that time. We will not answer!

There will be no update of payment status. Anybody should keep track of that themselves! It is sufficient to pay when I'm back again.

For questions, please read the first post in the main thread.

Have a lot of fun ...
