It's been a while since I've had a sweary one, so I guess it's high time xD .

I really appreciate these reviews, going from sublime, to ridiculous, to utter shit! The contrast between the extremes helps to define what it is that makes the best keyboards so desirable. Thanks Thomas.

Chyros always delights us with an ever expanding array of keyboards. Any fool can do a review on the very BEST keyboards made in the twentieth century but it takes an artist to review nearly every type of keyboard, yet keeping us amused and entertained at the very same time.

I always watch his reviews in between shifts up here in dust town central, because it actually helps me connect to all the other keyboard fanatics in cities around the globe.

He's the only one that applies his normal facade of a general user coupled with experienced zealotry, when it comes to all types of keyboards in this world.

The seebart wiki library is vast, comprehensive, factual, diverse, awesome... But the keyboards in there are unobtainium, and it lacks the "shits & giggles" entertainment dimension that Thomas brings :-)

Sure, anytime swearing is involved Chyros videos become quite watchable. :mrgreen:

Just to clarify:

1. I don't do videos. ( I just deleted those three lousy ones still up on google+)
2. I'm not funny (which is why I use memes (which in turn does NOT help))
3. Daniel this is not your accurate macro-spider photography. Memes have a certain leeway. ;) :lol:

Interesting — there's a strong semblance between the Tai-Hao Mechanical Kid keyboard (pictured on eBay) and the rubber dome keyboard.

Maybe it's its ancestor. It's PS/2 rather than USB among others.

It must have something written on something inside that offers a clue.

I thought it was obvious that this was 6-pin-SMD-IC-man...
