I can't be arsed to circle them while I'm at work, so for today could you be a doll and go ahead and circle the ones that you would pick?  No pressure or anything, it just would be helpful.  Thanks!

Ooops, fell asleep waiting for it to hit 12...

First number generated...



-drum roll-

...and that's a winner! https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=67933.msg1616308#msg1616308

Congrats nubbinator! Please PM me your address and I'll have these stabs shipped out Monday. :)



Answer:


Many people chose the 3rd switch from the right (second row from top) early on. It was interesting seeing it spotted early on.

Congrats nubbs :)

Looking at the solution I was kinda expecting to see something that is, in retrospect, blindingly obvious.

But I can't.

It's still all as clear as mud to me.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Congrats nubs!

I will take pride in my complete guess was the first right answer  ;D
unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)
