Does anyone here have pull with Sun Microsystems or know someone who does?
I'm trying to get the right person jazzed up about the idea of a Type 7
keyboard built like a Model M. I've already emailed clickykeyboards.com
about it and they'll do the engineering and design work for about $27k. A
Type 7 sells brand new for around $50. I'm sure people would be more than
willing to pay twice as much for a "Type 7m".
Could you explain a little more? I got off the sun bus around type 4
keyboards.
What's special about a model 7? and whats a "Model M"?
Back in the day I loved my sun keyboard, but it looked like this:

i.e. with the control key in the correct place :-)
