I had no time during the past week but some pictures of a Cherry G80-3000 and a keyboard with Monterrey switches.

It's Clicky time :lol:

I think I can write it off as my secret santa present still hasn't arrived. I assume it is lost. Whoever my secret santa was, could you let me know what was my present? :-)

Webwit sent you the space cadet board. I'm sure another one will pop up.

This thread doesn't serve to promote postal services.. Really didn't expect some of these to take so long (or not arrive at all)

Alphagrip! I could use it with my media center! I hope it will show up eventually.

I'm amazed I haven't seen my gifts arrive at their destination... I specifically bought from people in the USA to send to that person to save time and expensive shipping costs. :(

This is really tragic!

Mine is arriving in parts.
:shock:

Hope the rest will come as well and we see some pictures of it ...
:P

You have sent me about 5 packages in the past and I sent you my address for the secret santa organization. :D
I can only draw one conclusion: @webwit: The PM organization sucks! :D

Hmm, that makes sense. I will check the pms.

As said in the corresponding thread, my gift arrived after two months, shortly after Valentine's day. If it had been just a tad earlier, I could have believed I had a secret admirer :lol:

Please excuse the poor quality of my photos :

As you can see this is an Access IS matrix keyboard with 90 keys. It's a great gift since I've been lurking on the Access IS boards for quite some time but didn't have the opportunity to get one yet. Thanks a lot secret santa :)

It has a double headed PS/2 cable, one head being male and the other female. I don't really get why but hopefully I will find more information on that subject later. Eventually I'd like to replace the cable for something more conventional and shorter, as the board will be plugged to a laptop most of the time. The design is beautiful, very compact and sturdy, seems much better to me than the modern tipro cases.

I know already that I'll enjoy programming it ! From my current experience it won't accept being programmed on a 64bit Windows 7, even plugged on a PS2 port. I'll try again on my legacy machine equipped with a good old XP, that one should be fine. My layout options are already running into my head quickly, and it's going to be travelling with me all other the country as I want to take it for work.

Thanks again, I am a happy man ! :)
