      Nah, fuck that shape. Look what they did to my boy Right Shift. I'm glad L-shaped Enter keys died out in the mid 90s.

        The early naughts were a little more aesthetic.

          Nice, but definitely needs a cleaning

              How do you connect it to your computer? I have a big old keyboard but it's from before there were PS2 ports so I don't know what to do with it.

                Many/most of them can just use a DIN to PS/2 and then if needed a PS/2 to USB adapter. Unless you have one of the more exotic old connectors (SDL, ADB, etc), that is usually all it takes.

                      I'm generally not a fan of the oversized Enter key, but this is beautiful and I'd use the hell out of it

                        Oh man. I've been looking for that for decades now. Too bad the backlash is in a dumb spot.

                            Not an apple fan but this is the only aesthetic tech should have. Transparent plastic everything. I yearned for the clamshell PowerBook g3 as a kid. Still do.

                              I got mine free, from a bunch of stuff our company IT was throwing out because it was too old. That was over a decade ago, and it’s still the best keyboard I’ve ever had.

                                  I usually disable right shift because I accidentally keep pressing it while hitting enter making it shift enter

                                    I had to get a new keyboard, and I just wanted a basic black or beige one. The internet really wanted to sell me one that lights up and has a bunch of extra keys. I don't need or want that. Just a basic tool with all the keys, thank you.

                                      That's sadly common with SKCM Alps switches. You can clean them out, but it suuuucks to do a full keyboard of them.

                                      Yeah. I also heard of waxing Alps switches to decrease stiction. Sucks, because otherwise, I think the switches feel really nice.

                                      Still, though, nothing beats a Model F, although I haven't used a beamspring, so maybe one of those with a solenoid.

                                          I always love seeing old keyboards with the pen groove along the top.
