Found a keyboard on the local craigslist apparently signed by the dude who invented control alt del.

Ha, that's pretty neat.  Might be a cool collectors item, also not a bad deal in general for the keyboard itself.

Pretty cool, but I don't know why anyone would sell a personalized autograph like that for "beer" money. I'd hang in on the wall or something.
SSKs for everyone!

I'm not a fan of ctrl alt delete.
That was definitely a huge mistake

If that is really signed by David Bradley - that would be really awesome to have.
  Quoting me causes a posting error that you need to ignore.

Why does DAS have that ridiculous appendage that makes it look like a hadrosaur or Colonial One?
From the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 :

The   Congress   shall have Power
To declare War,  grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;
To provide for calling forth the Militia  to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

There's a USB hub behind there. Still, I agree it's ugly but at least it's functional.

I'll just leave this here.

This is why you don't leave bad code in your software. It will never be refactored and however bad it might be someone will try to stamp it as "best practice" and sell it to the users.

Hey I like my DAS boards. I have two I used a few years back (my first mechs) I'll be trying to sell them here shortly... not because I don't like the boards... just because I don't use full size boards anymore.

I wonder why Das never makes TKLs. I'm sure its fans love TKL.
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

They just released a TKL a few months ago!


It was the first keyboard they've released not using cherry mx switches though, they opted for Greetech switches in the 4c.
