Title: Metadot (Das) to Ship Mac Linux Keys
Post by: bigpook on Sat, 13 June 2009, 17:00:23

I think thats nice that they offer that. I like the windows key too, its the logo on the key that I find offensive.

I think the tux logo would be cool, but then the windows guys would have something to complain about. No one wins.

They should just change the logo on the key to this:

ISTR that when they started advertising the Deck it was "ooh, ideal for modders-- look, we'll give you a pirate-flag key to start".  Gimme a pirate design

I'm quite fond of the Sun meta-dot (like the one on the happy hacking keyboard), it's pretty OS neutral, and looks cool.

If your keycaps wear out just get these.  Hot off the Metadot Blog:



I LIKE the Windows key!    :missing troll smiley:

Hmm... methinks they are talking about ONE key.  Scratch the keycap wear solution part.

LOL. A key for every OS and an OS for every key.

Maybe they should focus on rolling out a functional keyboard first?

If you have read any of Linus's or Stallmans posts you would quickly realized there is very little love.

What's wrong with the Swedish campsite symbol? (Aka the Command symbol)

Again, the Penguin just looks garish. Give me a Meta Key (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_key) and I'll be happy.
