Title: WTB HHKB Layout ANSI Aluminum Case
Post by: Dubsgalore on Thu, 21 March 2013, 10:56:53
not sure if they exist, but for the GH60 Groupbuy i think i am going to go with the hhkb ansi layout. Is there a case that exists where i can get that layout without having those extra unused spaces on the left and right side, and that would fit a HHKB Ansi layout?

KMAC Happy is the only one with a case like you describe. There are some in the works, but a long way off.

that's unfortunate i guess. arnt kmac's $400+? why would the hhkb ansi layout even be an option for the gh60 if they are no cases available?  :(

with my gh60 i want to order the hhkb ansi layout with my gh60. i want to know if there is a case (or aluminum case) that will fit it correctly (without having unused plate spaces on the left and right of the bottom row. sorry i was confusing

4) modular top cover - The top cover has 3 different designs, allows you to choose a winkeyless cover, HHKB style, or standard full keys

i plan on using the poker layout but changing the key mappings to match a HHKB. for instance, **** the caps lock. control all the way.  and i like how HHKB utilizes the function layer.

the reason i hesitate to make a HHKB GH60 is I constantly use the Win Key and the plates/cases will probably be in less demand. Win key is just useful, and i miss it on my IBM Model M.

to each their own.

Your Control key will be next to your "A" key. Caps lock on Fn+Tab. You can have Win keys. There are 4 keys on the bottom row you can program. I personally don't need 2 Alt's or Ctrl's. And I would make the first 1x key on the bottom row (far left) the Win key.

im pretty sure the hhkb default on actual hhkb's on the bottom row go 'alt, winkey, space, winkey, alt' i am pretty sure. fn is next to the right shift. i am pretty sure the hhkb has winkeys


and yea..getting this moved to off topic would be helpful. i think locking the thread wouldnt be a great idea
