Group Buys and Preorders / [In-stock] GMK CYL Quaderno - An Olivetti-Inspired Set
« Last post by Gtour on Fri, 17 April 2026, 05:31:58 »
After a year of behind-the-scenes work with GMK, I’m happy to announce a new in-stock set on their website:
GMK CYL Quaderno; a playful, retro-inspired set paying homage to the Olivetti Quaderno terminal.
In-stock and available exclusively on the GMK shop!
https://www.gmk.net/shop/en/ | Product Page
Both the Grand Base Kit and a more affordable TKL Base Kit are available, with free shipping on orders over €125.
I’ve heard from others that there are no tariffs on US orders when ordering from GMK, although I can’t fully confirm this.
Tip: The nine media icon novelties pair perfectly with any 2×3 or 3×3 macropad.
History
More
The Olivetti Quaderno ("Quaderno" translates to "Notebook" in English) was a compact subnotebook released in 1992, available in two versions: the Quaderno (PT-XT-20) and the Quaderno 33 (PT-AT-60). Designed to be lighter and smaller than typical laptops of the era, roughly the size of an A5 sheet and weighing just 1 kg, it introduced features ahead of its time, including a built-in microphone and integrated amplifiers. Its price reflected its exclusivity, selling for 1,390,000 Italian lire plus VAT. However, its initial release struggled due to software limitations that failed to maximize its hardware potential. In response, Olivetti quickly introduced the Quaderno 33, an improved model running Windows 3.1. Despite its challenges, the Olivetti Quaderno was recognized for its innovative design, winning the 1992 SMAU Industrial Design Award in Italy and the 1993 iF Product Design Award in Germany.

So convenient. and it's easier than baked, because baked you got the smoke and hot house effect.
And because most sauces are also tubular, it's really the ideal Bachelor chow that's 100% healthy and 200% lazy.
