ARMOR U9BL" to lie on that, either you learn about in the end, of course, has long been impatient to play with the keyboard turned out some of the ~ "Love Wang X. ARMOR U9BL" mechanical keyboard border skin class of the surface coating design used, except with the feel similar to human skin, providing a nice feel, but in the gloss is also different from the entry-level products.

yea translation by computer, if you have to translate for 10 languages can't hire a guy per language, just feed through the computer and pdf it out.

Gah, why can't they pay someone a few dollars to revise the translations on the packaging? For all the investment put into a venture, you would think that would be a worthwhile expense.

Wang?  Condom?  I don't know about anywhere else in the world, but round here 'wang' is highly appropriate slang.

But on the other hand, it's an innocent surname in China.

And one of an American of Chinese extraction who brought us fun and geeky stuff...
