Notes from a Desi Geek

Now this is what I call a keyboard designed for geeks!

Check Das Keyboard, these keyboards have blank keys, no alphabets are printed! So unless you are a touch typist and know where your ‘A’, ‘S’,'D’,'F’ are (which all geeks should know), you can’t use it! How cool is that? Now only if it was a little cheaper, I would have bought it.

So, you ask what’s so special about it? I can blank out keys of my existing keyboard. Yes, you can but certainly you can not have different weight attached to different keys? This keyboard features individually weighted keyswitches, which means that you need to use less force from your pinkyto press the letter ‘z’. Here’s the key weight layout (click on image for full size layout)

Great stuff!
