Guess all presents have been shipped, quite a reliable bunch of Santas.

So only you or 7bit remain.
Can always check if your tracking number looks anything like this: XX888888888X

it's in the box ready to ship, really too big for my taste

Today massdrop and BSP will talk together, hopefully we can find an agreement and start the production.

It is anonymous, so I'm unsure if I should open it or not.

Awful picture, sorry. I got what seems to be an NCR Decision Mate keyboard with RAFI hall effect switches. Very interesting linear switches, glad I'm finally getting to try them out. It's a shame one switch got broken in shipping. This is why you shouldn't use Hermes for shipping!
Thanks Santa! I hope I will be able to find a use for this thing despite the wacky layout

Very nice! What kind of connector does it use?
I've seen some keyboards with this style of keycaps on German ebay lately. Maybe I should try and get one of these, too. I would need one with a more "normal" layout, tough, I can't even get used to the AT Model F layout.

DIN connector.
I have another board with keycaps like that which Sixty hasn't shipped yet. One of these which uses Cherry ML switch :

Similar, but these don't have the flat part on the back of the keycap. But I need to get a ML keyboard some time as well, I've tried one at our University and it feels quite good. Something like these small Cherry boards should do.

If it is broken, it is because it had not been packed well enough!

It was packed fine. I blame Hermes. Really, they're horrible

Interesting, I've only ever seen those with MY switches. At least the broken key is a control and not the enter

Well they don't mess up ALL the time. Of course pre-Christmas is the grand finale for them in terms of work load.
