This is a Micron branded keyboard made by NMB in Thailand that I rescued from the trash in 2000 when one of my roommates was going to throw it out. It had dried spots of soda, milk, and peanut butter(!) inside the guts. It worked fine after I dismantled and cleaned it.
That mystery key over the carriage return is the pipe key. Both shift keys are full size.
This is my work keyboard; this is the reason that I'm making so many typos in my code and e-mails from work lately. It has all these extra symbols and keys that are just ever so slightly out of place or differently shaped. And you just thought I was getting drunk on the smell of schnasty Guiness at work.
Coolpix L110
My first image from the new Coolpix L110. I was taking it out of the box and installing the AA batteries. This scene of my very dirty keyboard was the first thing that came on the screen.
First impression... I think this one might be fun.
The IBM Space Saving Keyboard (SSK) was an optional peripheral for the PS/2 personal computer. Although originally not as popular as the full-size Model M which included a number pad key cluster, the SSK has developed a loyal following among vintage keyboard collectors and enthusiasts. Due to the popularity of the full-size Model M, there are now relatively few SSKs to be found for sale or scrap. Those that do turn up quickly sell for top dollar, even in very poor condition.
This particular SSK, dated December 14, 1987, was rescued from an e-cycler, then fully cleaned and restored. The keycaps (many of which were broken or missing) have been replaced with a replica set produced by Unicomp, Inc.
Blank keyboard (defect), no characters on the keys, but still lots of fun using it to configure cisco switches.
Logitech Ultra Flat Keyboard. Why crowd keys around the arrow keys?? Now they're harder to find without looking. And why are the page up/page down and home/end keys in such strange places?
And finally, the keyboard shot! :D Most of the 365 projects I've followed have the keyboard shot. It usually means: Yes, I am desperate, have no ideas, I've got nothing left at home that I haven't shot...
Received a crate today at a customer site. Apparently the computer that came with our new CCD X-ray generator bias alignment computer thingie was from Japan, along with the CCD detector and everything else. It was a good thing they decided to translate the software. I was just a bit surprised to see the keyboard with the Japanese characters, kinda kewl and something to at least liven up my day.
So not only have I worn down the plastic coatings on my MacBookPro, today I was pounding so hard the Shift key snapped in half.
oh well, capitalization s like.. so over-rated.
And look closely @rushaw, maybe that wasn't a typo!
here's a shot i took with the hipstamatic app on my recently deceased iphone. this is for all the software developers on here, there seem to be so many of us :)
this is sooc.
hipstamatic is an application you can download for your iphone (not free, but not expensive). it will use the built-in camera to take pictures but it will make them look like they were shot with cheap old plastic cameras. you can chose which lens to resemble and which film to use. three lenses and three films are included in the basic package, apparently you can buy additional ones as well.
