Identifying a keyboard.
« on: Sun, 16 October 2011, 04:59:23 »
Hiya guys, this is my first post here, but I've been a lurker for some time.

A friend of a friend uses a certain mechanical keyboard that I'm interested in, but I cannot identify it for the life of me. It is all black, but has white arrow keys and lettering. Anyone happen to know what it is?

Edit:

Won't let me post the picture I have of it. That's lame.

well, this describes pretty much every mechanical keyboard with standard keycaps.

we would need more information like is there anything written on the keyboard and/or picture(s).

Last time I checked not all keyboards had white arrow keys and the rest is black.

He wouldn't just tell you what it is?

With the link, try to replace http with hxxp or h**p so we can just change it ourselves and have a look.

You can probably PM a link to it to someone, and have them post it. I'm pretty sure the limit is set in place to prevent spambots from doing their ting. Having a "known human" screen your image in this way will allow us to help you while preventing a spambot from spamming (if you are a spambot, You never know)

Could you take some higher quality pics? Or you could just ask him what it is.

While waiting just let me say I appreciate Ellysian's screenname and Greek mythology references. Elysian Fields.   Or Fielding Elysian questions.

Haha.

First time someone has ever commented on that. Hat off to you, sir.

To Rafen: Those are the pictures I got from a stream :( That's about as good as they get. If I could get in contact with him, I would.

Was just hoping someone would recognize it, because you obviously can't identify it from the photos.

Edit:

While waiting for someone with super vision;

Which key is easier to depress? The brown or blue cherry switches?

I am actually pretty sure that it is a Das ultimate.

You can more or less see the special shape of the top line and some white writing as it is on the Das

The brown is easier to depress. As for the keyboard, I would say  it has a similar shape to the WASD keyboards. I tried to identify the logo but I don't even think Superman could make that out.
