This is true, although I much prefer diamonds (or penguins) to ducks or squirrels.Muirium wrote:Ducky (usually) puts ducks on the Windows keys and KBT does squirrels, so nothing new by Kul there. I'm unimpressed by their run of the mill TKL, to be honest.

I will (and I have the opposite experience; almost everybody I know use Windows, regardless of age).Trev wrote:I wonder how many people in this thread would be using Windows with the keyboard? Do Windows users even want that style of Microsoft "branding" as key legends? Seems very outdated to me.
I would argue that most of the world is still on Windows, but, CM need to think very carefully about their target market with a specialist product such as the Novatouch - are their target users paying $$$ for a Topre board with Cherry compatibility really all Windows biased?Muirium wrote:It's a Microsoft certification thing. Something Topre still cares too much about, but many gamer keyboards do not. Sadly, though, most of the mech keyboard world really is still on Windows. Not by nearly long a way as in the past, but we're still an anachronistic lot!

they probably have the certification anyway. It would be cheaper if the company didn't have any MS certification at all.Grond wrote:I guess they have to pay in order to get Microsoft certification and allowance to use the Windows logo. Does this make keyboards without Windows key cheaper?
What percentage of those users are using a desktop computer with a keyboard though? All I'm saying is that keyboards with Windows keys are popular because Windows is a popular environment. In an ideal world, every pair of scissors you bought would come with alternate handles for people who are left-handed, but in our harsh, cruel world, that's just not the caseTrev wrote: Not just Apple-guys, everyone else.

On a forum I run/co-own for watch collectors, we're sitting at about 42% of users on a Windows-based OS. This is dropping every month too. IE usage is now under the 14% mark. So yes, in this case 58% of them would potentially have good reason to be annoyed at a "Windows" logo/advertising stuck on a new keyboard they've purchased.
