    I like the design, obviously 50% of the design team were in favour of an ambidextrous layout and the other half were normal people.
    I don't live here any more.

    but it's Open - so if you don't like the buttons you can open it up and un-solder them, or install a chin-strap, or a "lean mean grilling machine" style drip tray .

    Of which shouldn't they be free? I mean wouldn't it fall under the open source, pay nothing category?

    I haven't bought a keyboard in 9 years though as I bought 5 of them for $4 w/ free shipping and none of them have broken on me yet.

    Nobody knows what software they want until after you've delivered what they originally asked for.

    The only mendhak posts I've seen in a while are in this thread. He must be on a low Chit Chat restricted diet. Maybe Chit Chat was giving him indigestion.
