Just felt like taking a picture of it. (For the record, it's the Matias Tactile Pro. And it's awesome.)
So this is one of the older types of Braille keyboard & display that our company has sold.
In addition to 20 output positions of Braille characters, it also contains 8 input buttons to enter them. Each character consists of 8 dots, which can be either on or off. And of course there's a spacebar...
The newer types are smaller, lighter, and therefore more portable. But I couldn't find one in my rush just before leaving the office...

I bought my laptop in Canada. It was much cheaper to buy it in Canada. (15% tax vs 25% tax) I also saved some extra money purchasing a refurbished laptop from Apple. Now in Sweden, Fredrik bought me a Swedish keyboard complete with their fancy extra letters (åäö). Just have to get used to typing on this keyboard 'cause some of the symbols are in different places. ie the ? is now on the top row.
I was digging through some old junk in a box I found in my closet and I found this keyboard. It's in the Dvorak layout. It's supposed to be faster, but I was never able to master it to the point it gave me any added speed. Plus, who wants to stop using WASD and start using <AOE?
It's worth noting that this keyboard wasn't like this when I got it. I swapped the keys around myself to give the Dvorak layout a try. I gave up on it, and never swapped the keys back.
This is an old keyboard from where I work that got replaced with a new one. The woman who used it had not just rubbed off the ink of some letters, but actually worn grooves in the keys with her fingernails. It's not the worst out there, but certainly worse than mine which are kept in near-mint condition due to my two finger typing style.
This is a Canon Cat, a rare vintage computer developed by Jef Raskin, who did early work on Apple's Macintosh. I found this in 2001 at a Goodwill store.
From which you can deduce with which hand most of my sentences begin and how often I open xterms if I tell you the keybinding to do so is alt-enter.
Literally had no time today, so this is my basic easy shot for the day, sorry its not very exciting :-)

I guess Swedish people aren't meant to be programmers. Brackets aren't anywhere to be found on this keyboard. It turns out you have to press alt-shift-something to get these typed. Good thing I have a US bluetooth keyboard attached now ;)
In this week, for my 52 Project, I decided to upload these two keyboard capture because today I just finished to read and understand the iOS dev learning book, and then I used this keyboard all the week and all the month, but now I'm so glad that I became an iOS Developer!!!
Now there are a lot of work in my future days that I should will do, I'd like to develop an application that until today it lived just in my mind!
More news are coming this or the next year, stay tuned, I'm so excited!
Hope you enjoy the HDR captures, se you soon.
