Like, separate from keysets? I know that Raindrop R2 had Mac modifiers.

Keep an eye on the thread. There are always leftovers.

I don't like WASD caps, i've been spoiled by good PBT caps.

I always try to encourage those running a GB to include at least the Command key as an alternative to WinKey. However, group buys are complicated and the Command key usually gets dropped somewhere along the line.  :-[

Group Buys
   - Raindrop v1 and v2
   - Round4

Commercial
   - WASD (OEM Profile)
   - Unicomp (Buckling Spring)

Specific to WASD, you can actually get a complete set of custom keys that look very "Mac like" cosm2000 did just that a couple of years ago and I think they turned out really nice.

Given the lack of support for Mac in most commercial and group buy sets, I started an Interest Check for a Command Key Group Buy, but I had to put it on the back burner due to increased demands at work. I hope to take up the project again perhaps this summer and include support for more color ways if at all possible.

Hope that helps!

I've heard rumors of people being able to send in caps to WASD and get them to Lazer a design for you.


I'll try contacting them and see if they can do anything.

I have some front printed white caps that would look cool with the mac layouts lasered in on the top of the keys.
