The Deskthority wiki photography competition has finally come to a close, two hours after it finally came to a close … >_<

Firstly, a list of all the entries, in alphabetical order of competitor and entry:

BimboBB — [wiki]Cherry G80-0904[/wiki] — Swedish/Finnish ISO layout
BimboBB — [wiki]Cherry G80-2551[/wiki]
Compgeke — [wiki]Apple Aluminium Keyboard[/wiki] — Apple A1243
Compgeke — [wiki]Cirque GlidePoint[/wiki]
Compgeke — [wiki]Dental floss mod[/wiki]
Compgeke — [wiki]Graphics tablet[/wiki] — Wacom Bamboo Tablet
Compgeke — [wiki]Trackpad[/wiki] — various
Ducky Nordic — [wiki]Ducky DK1087[/wiki] — Ducky DK1087 XM
kps — [wiki]Alps vintage tee mount lock[/wiki]
kps — [wiki]Alps vintage tee mount[/wiki]
kps — [wiki]Amiga[/wiki] — Amiga 2000 Mitsumi variant
kps — [wiki]Apple Desktop Bus Keyboard[/wiki] — A9M0330
kps — [wiki]Apple Extended Keyboard[/wiki]
kps — [wiki]Apple M0110A[/wiki] — Japan—made variant
kps — [wiki]DEC LK201[/wiki] — LK201 and LK201AA
kps — [wiki]DEC LK401[/wiki] — LK501

Total: 4 competitors, and 97 new photos across 16 articles. I thought Muirium had made it after all (after my confusion over UTC/BST) but they have to be disqualified according to the rules.

And the winners:

In first place, kps, for [wiki]DEC LK201[/wiki] — I was actually hoping someone would cover that one, and I was pleased to see such a wide range of shots detailing the keyboard and its curious switches. Not only that, but two different variants of the same keyboard. The keyboard could really do with a good brush out, though!

In second place, Compgeke, for [wiki]Cirque GlidePoint[/wiki]

In third place, BimboBB, for [wiki]Cherry G80-2551[/wiki]

The winners have been contacted for their choice of prize.

Thank you for flying Deskthority wiki photo competition.

The DEC LK201, one of the most influential shitty keyboards in the world.

Thanks for organizing this event!

All off you four entrants have taken better pictures for the Wiki than I could have with my crappy camera.
I've added pics to the wiki in the last month, but not tagged them for the compo.
