That's true, as a leftie I was never so much interested in these. That said, I don't care for a numpad much either because I don't enter lots of numbers nowadays, so I'm happily going for the TKL for its relative compactness if I get the chance, like with a Model M SSK.

You, the beamspring master, don't even have an SSK? I've only got two beamsprings, but more SSKs…

Fullsize keyboards force me to put the pointing device on the left - usually my Magic Trackpad which doesn't need much precious space - while TKLs and 60s let me put it either side, a fact I like to make use of, for load sharing ergonomics.

Trouble is, with the homerow centred beneath my display, fullsize boards are so damn lopsided it feels and looks and I dare say simply is stupid. A TKL is as big as I ever need. No matter the hypothetical conference sized table. My hands and eyes don't like to deviate from the centre line unnecessarily while doing hours of work! Fullsize boards are plain wrong for symmetrical things, like we humans.

Sorry, just my bad English. I have that Bluetooth SSK that I'm using every day...

[Muirium]

Okay, now I'm back to being jealous again!

Did you do the Bluetoothing yourself, or is this Phosphorglow's work? I've got a second controller lined up from him for the Bluetooth bits I have aside, and another SSK.

[Halvar]

I got a terminal SSK once with the help of a certain Scotch gentleman, and later I built an ugly bluetooth controller from a Teensy++, strip pcbs and some Adafruit parts, and then Phosphorglow built his much nicer controller and got a few tips and my TMK firmware configuration from me. I planned to heavily improve the firmware, but that hasn't happened yet, which is also why I never really showed my project here.

A bit blurry, but this is my desktop.

Ikea BEKANT standing desk (can be electrically adjusted in height) and a Swopper - I like to alternate.
Kinesis Advantage with Workman layout and a WASD V2 keyboard in the background. I also alternate between these two to keep my QWERTY skills. The numpad on the left is solely used for shortcuts.

Nice standing desk setup! I bought not long ago a standing desk too, but had a nice wooden table top already, so I only bought the legs. They were not cheap, but well build quality. Instead of a Swopper I have a Stitz!

Newbie to the site. Here is a picture of my desktop at work. I came here because I wanted to find out more about the Chicony KB-5181 I found in the IT room (new in the box). It is like a museum (the IT room). Anyway, enjoying my keyboard - miss the Windows key and it does not play nice with my KVM, otherwise I love annoying my neighbors with all of my "clanging"

do not dumb here:

[andrewjoy]

Whats that thing on your desk , that horrible lenovo thing , i have used the ISO version and they are horrible. The slightly older IBM branded ones are slightly better but still crap.

@sth: wow where did you get the old HHKBs? I'd love to have such a thing in my collection!

[seebart]

Not dumb area here

?!? I love that grumpy square cat too.

pro1 came from a trade with someone on GH, old hhkblite came from a lucky find in an e-cycler in the bay area

i looked into the original sign and i think it's a chinese-english translation error - the hard B sound is very similar to hard P sound, so it probably means "Do not dump here"

but i think i like having a not dumb area here.

Why are the old HHKB's so valued?

[Muirium]

(Looks around and whispers.) They aren't.

[sth]

Why are the old HHKB's so valued?

basically, they're curios
curiosity killed the cat
i hate cats

@sth wow nice, what a lucky grab! I own a HHKB pro1 in white (well its more yellow tbh), that thing would be awesome to own. I'd probably leave it in the box.

neither the pro1 nor the og lite came in original boxes the lite actually came without a box, and it has what appear to be... teethmarks all over it but it works fine so i use it as my backup board (for example, when i need to flash my tmk firmware on the pro1 )

[cookie]

I neither have original boxes of my hhkbs, The Pro2 I've bought is the only exception :/
Those are hard to find, I've never seen a NIB Pro1 or the original Fujitsu HHKB.

someone was selling the original HHKB with the box, but they wanted hundreds (like 250 at least) for it... i couldn't justify the cost but i was very tempted. i love the original Happy Hacking logo

[cookie]

250 is a lot, but it's a rare piece. Other are more expensive but less rare!

[sth]

this is true, nevertheless i am only in the market for collectibles when they're available at bargain prices

Just saw that on reddit, are you planning on selling any of that?

Thanks in advance
