Yes, the Enter (AKA Return) is somewhat artsy-craftsy, as my wife would say. But the whole thing's a fantasy, a stylized-retro thing... So I just consider it part of the creative design.

And they certainly aren't the only Carbon set with that feature (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/carbon).

Sorry, Row, didn't see your post. Maybe you're better at understanding Chinglish than me—what the heck does that mean?

BTW, the 104 set has been bumped up a dollar. At $25.99 shipped, tho, it still seems like an awesome deal.

Think it means the Splash (|\) key (above Enter) is now gray, same as the Tab key

(improvement as far as I'm concerned)
