he talks about being 'tsundere' for a keypad. this is fascinating, and a little creepy.

What poetry:
Quote
theory or death
of such a Tarashiku
flows in the past, but
I did not know it.

Na and I
do not want
to worry everyone,
I have updated.

I will be alive
in the normal margin.


And this:

Quote

No, I do,
you know Imawano
death, drinking Garr,
I was not crying
or God.

We are not often like that.

While recalling the memories,
the positive,
I.


It's what would happen if William Carlos Williams wrote haiku.
I trolled Geekhack and all I got was an eponymous SPOS.

It was evening all afternoon.
It was snowing
And it was going to snow.
The blackbird sat
In the cedar-limbs.

I wanted one of these, once.



In a certain sense, the perfect keyboard: no moving parts:


Did anyone else stick it out far down the page to see the Alps keyswitch cutaway flash animations? "Old made Flash video. Made so-great, but we think that the opportunity to see." Me too.

And this is what I want the scoop on.

It was the numpad for the 5576-003. I'm not sure whether it came with it or not.

I thought someone said that it was rubber dome (I've posted that here before). At first, I thought is a BS version that went with the M15.

The M15 numpad is more rounded. There's a pic in the IBM Wiki of one.

Not sure about the 5576-003 design. Might want to pop a PM to Sandy. He's the man for these things.

I'd love one of those keyboards. They'd probably be bloody expensive though...
