Hey everyone.

Inspired by PowerBook 100. Featuring Extended 2048 accent colors and (as close as possible) PowerBook 100 base color.
Looking for feedback, so here is a Google Poll.

Great set !
I hope there will be the same complete international kit as for GMK Extended 2048.

Now this is an interesting variation. I have some really weird feedback though.

That set remind all the nice afternoon spend on my dad's best friend MacIntosh, playing Warcraft, first of his name!!!

I'd be very happy to slap this on one of my keyboard.... as long as ISO FR is supported, like with a true international child kit  ;D.

Nice!
I'll buy any of the base kits as long as there is also an azerty child kit.
Please think about ISO users, add a split left shift to your "alice style" keyboards

Will there be an accompanying deskmat too?

Great kitting, as we've come to expect from you :) As far as base kit choice goes, it all comes down to pricing, imo.

Are there any new legend molds in this set?

It will be matched to a PowerBook 100. I should receive it next week. But it looks close indeed.

Now this is an interesting variation. I have some really weird feedback though.

I like it. Now I'd have to convince vendors to run that as an extension kit, maybe with UV sub legends?!

Some novelties require new molds to be made.

Definitely!

Please cover numpads with 2u "+" as well as those with 1u "+" & "-"

Also, it makes sense to me for FN numbers to match numpad numbers (start in R4 and progress up).
Or is the top-down FN configuration part of Powerbook's history?

I think a poll would be useful here hah.
