Mind sharing some ideas/inspiration? For example:

*WHY?
*Don't you miss those extra buttons?
*How did you ensure that it still worked, even when ( obviously ) cutting away parts of the underlying wiring?*etc
:)

...the space saving look quite good, though I would have thought you could have acheived that just by knocking those funny handles ( ? ) off?

i was thinking of cutting a keyboard sized hole in my computer desk and putting a piece of tin sheet/perspex across the bottom.
then instal the keyboard in the slot for a nice recessed look.
course you might have to put a few holes in it to let the dust/crumbs/drool fall through. ;)

you can get 2 button mouses to work with macs but why should you have to pay extra for something that should be standard

Laptop keyboards are the best. Apart from some of the keys being in random locations.

I want a laptop purely to plug in and use a keyboard.

if i could, i would seriously buy a keyboard with laptop style keys, they are just so nice and quick, and responsive.
best of all they is small, i wonder if i could take my old laptop keyboard (startin playin up in my laptop due to wear n tear) and turn it to p/s2

? can it be done?

not worth the bother methinks. :p

anyway, laptop keyboards being good kinda depends on what laptop you're talking about.....

Ahh yes, laptops are way better when preventing RSI cuz they hold your wrists straight when you type

Well i have to agree Daza's latop (compaq presario 712AU i belive) is very nice with respect to the keyboard and good as far as rSI is concerned too..... and its got one other important aspect ....

IT HAS AN AMD PROCESSOR!

hahaha :)
