DT: the mysterious foreign authority on classic keyboards that someone must translate into Japanese / Mandarin / Korean someday.

That's two in the last three weeks. I guess people wait for someone else to test the waters or they prey on the guy with the "one that got away" story. I noticed a similar influx of 5576-003 keyboards going back a year or so.

If you pretend you don't know what "deskthority" is, and google it, you may be surprised at what comes up as the first hit:

Indeed, I had noticed that and wondered why all the Chinese characters. It's like we're just using the English sub forum of a much larger East Asian site! Which would be pretty sweet actually.

I think it comes from some Chinese people posting here in Chinese and google thinks this is a Chinese website.
Ot maybe it is and we just see the very small Euro/American sub-forum.

Then wouldn't the main forum be on top of the google search? Just wondering

Perhaps I should put a no follow on the language selector.

Maybe the language confusion is because of a ton of well Pageranked incoming links? The increasing authority of the DT Wiki worldwide could be confusing Google's own leprechauns on just what this site is.

Not got room in the car, or not got room in the house? Naturally, the best ones will be at the bottom. People don't know that to stack keyboards, you put the light ones down first, to cushion the good boards if you haven't bubble wrap.

No room in the house, but mainly not enough confidence that there is more interesting stuff in there than a few G81-3000 HAD.

Not great, but maybe a bit interesting: 4 unnamed old keyboards:
http://www.ebay.de/itm/190936998293?ssP ... 1423.l2649
Austria. Maybe someone can identify one or the other?
The top one and the left one look like rubberdome to me, the bottom one is a Chicony and looks like my
KB-5192. Mine has Futaba switches, but according to the wiki this was made with various switches. The right one I can't identify.

pretty big gamble,
top one is rubberdome chicony
left one rubberdome
bottom one is one of the mech chiconys, but there are more bad than good variations out there

And one can't even use the bottom row modifiers because it's a G81.
