I think that website's been there way, way before the GH60. It's still unique due to the track-point-thingy.

HHKB and trackball for bed use
with the HHKB i get the satisfaction of using a good keyboard without waking my wife, even lubed reds with o rings will wake her, topre for some reason doesn't bother her.
I use my Poker and laptop's big Touch Pad if I'm in bed or anywhere except my desk. It's small, the only board I currently own, and has lubed ergo clears with gold 62g Korean springs.
Do you find that the laptop "and" keyboard get a bit weighty after a while?
I think it interesting that, thus far, no one has mentioned using a white or backlit board for low-light situations.

No, because my laptop is 17.3", less than an inch thick, and only weighs ~6 pounds :)
Edit - I'll probably pick up a Macbook Air or a Samsung Series 9 13.3" eventually. While I don't find my current setup to be heavy, I think something 13.3" and even thinner would be better.I think it interesting that, thus far, no one has mentioned using a white or backlit board for low-light situations.
I don't look at my keys when I type >.>
I have two laptops. This is the one I have in my bedroom (newer release, with Windows 8). It's a 14", and a Poker or Pure fits perfectly in the touch-pad area:

Nice, though I don't think I could handle 1366x768. Do you have access to the touch pad when a Poker/Pure is on top of it?
This is what I'm using (two SSDs/12GB of memory) - http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/laptops/NP700Z7C-S01US
Am I the only one who couldn't use a Poker on top of the laptop keyboard? It was always pressing buttons below it.
Anyway, I just use my phone in bed.

You can use it, but only if you place it in the touch-pad area, not on top of any keys. If this is on a small laptop (14", or less), you will definitely lose access to the touch-pad, and have to resort to a mouse.

No, you can definitely use it over the laptop keyboard without ever pressing buttons down, while 95% of the trackpad is showing. Three corners are not touching the keyboard underneath and you have to press really hard in the back for it to actuate laptop keys. I do it with my Poker and Nezumi does it with her Pure and 15" MBP.
I use the keyboard on my Motorola Droid 4. And Tapatalk. You kids are so fancy with your Pokers and Laptops in bed :P
If the rubber stops on the bottom of the board sit on keys, how does the pressure from your typing not actuate keys?

You're so right Sisbot...I should get an OTG cable and type on my Pure hooked up to my phone. Wonder if it would pull enough power to be backlit too.

How is that kb? And trackpad? Its only about 50 bucks on ebay. Is it heavy?You're so right Sisbot...I should get an OTG cable and type on my Pure hooked up to my phone. Wonder if it would pull enough power to be backlit too.
What's this? You can even see my little mouse cursor from the touchpad. But your battery hates you when you connect one of these, turn it up to full brightness, and use it as a hotspot at the same time...Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/kYRjlTm.jpg)

Haha, before I got into mechanical boards and when I gamed more, this used to be my in bed setup (SG05 w/GTX 680 was off to the left side).Show Image(http://imageshack.us/a/img41/4112/monitord.png)
SG05. Power density ftw :DNice, there are some photos of mine in one of the off topic computer threads. I've since parted it out, and I'm about to part out my Lian Li Q11R, but I'm selling the case to a friend of mine.
I have one too, with a 660. Previously it had a 6870 Hawk, I had to cut the case to fit it ^^Show Image(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/Furuyah/comp/sg05hawk_zpsf5b7023a.jpg)
This is my Samsung S5 Ultrabook with my FC660C:
How do you guys get that mechanical over your laptop keyboard without pressing all the keys of it?

Thanks guys, just wondered, can't try it with my own keyboard. The smallest one I have is a G80-1800HFD, and it's still a lot wider than my 15,6" laptop. ;) I never saw the sense of a 60% keyboard (don't know about you but my desk is wide enough for a fullsize^^), but now, for a laptop... May be quite nice, I could go with browns and O-rings and take it to university every day :D
Never saw it that way. Actually, you're right, I don't use the tenkey anyway. Could use an F-Row though (dunno, F5 for browser or in RPGs, for character selection or quicksave or something).
Also, as a German I'm used to a big Enter (not the big fat one, but I know some of the 60% keyboards only have a single row enter, thats too small for me). And I need arrow keys. ^^
Ah you know, I'm happy with my big old cherrys (G80-1000 and like that), and the smaller the keyboard, the more expensive it gets... for the moment I'm satisfied. :D
