Those look _exactly_ like the MKC ones that feng does the occasional GB for :)

feng had zinc caps in stock in his ebay store last I checked, although caseking offers both ISO and ANSI sets.

believe it or not zinc is terribly toxic to birds.  Don't let them near your zinc caps!

But somebody told me that keyboards are for the birds. Did they mean something else?

Really? I know they have a wider observable color spectrum (imagine the double shot color potential), but I did not know that!
