Sarcastic Product Ideas

(And remember, list-makers: If it's not a complete sentence, it doesn't need a period.)

  • Little clip-on motorized disco mirror balls for RGB KBs
  • KBs with USB 1.1 ports, for those times when USB 2.0 is just too fast
  • Special macro keys you can program to fire your regular macro keys, because then you don't have to actually press the regular ones, see?
  • A cat litter box shaped like a KB with its keys removed (anyone who's cleaned out a 20-year-old KB will get it)
  • MKs you can get really cheap because when you view certain sites their backlighting becomes a scrolling marquee of ad messages
  • A KB with Cherry MX Super Blacks and a layout even slower and kludgier than QWERTY, for people who don't think they work hard enough
  • Sarcastic "artisan" caps with faces of attractive people

You mean, like a PS3 controller? :rolleyes:

Apple made that in 1998. They didn't invent it though - they had copied an older design from Digital Equipment.

LOL

That seemed sarcastic enough to me. You'd want them to be long and elegant-looking, like the candles in a fine restaurant:




And how about having a couple of votive-shaped ones you could slip in with a few dozen others that are going at a church? Can you imagine how hard it'd be to identify the offending tapers? God might intervene, though, and send down an angel with a biblical-size sprayer of Febreze. I've heard of this happening in South America.

A Ducky firmware version that adds a quack! keypress sound.

Quack! Quack quack quack, quaaaaaack!

This would be formidable at gaming meets.
