It's not everyday I see ISO standard mechanical keyboard on the Internet. I love the fat enter key.
I think this is the first time I've seen ISO with a US (or UK?) layout.
US layout is ANSI (long horizontal enter key). This is a UK ISO keyboard, though this one isn't standardised (see where the control key is placed).
I really dislike the fact that, in Europe, when you cross a border, the keyboard layout can be totally different.
This is neither a UK ISO layout, nor a US ANSI. It's an ISO layout that uses the US ANSI positions for the symbols.
Yeah it's an amalgamation of a layout, raised with a big ass enter keyboard, later switched to a standard ansi and always hated that backslash and pipe had a large key? Always bothered me. After a while I got my hands on a wyse 50 keyboard and did a soarer's mod on to make it usb and was happy for awhile until they key combos resulting in other keys finally pushed me to moving on. I don't remember many but ctrl+w+e would send tab, not great when I'm crouch walking and go to open a door.
Would still love to have a space larger than 7, that 9.75 space bar was something else.. Also got me to love control below tab. Though now I don't even want a caps lock key, if I for some reason really want to use it I have key combos, both shifts works fine for me should I need it.
It's not everyday I see a Strafe avatar on the internet!
I love stomping on gluttons
e: wait, I know you
You're probably the first person to tell me about Strafe. I used to play this game so much.
You know me? :o
You made a post about strafe and that's where I know you from.
I recently went back to 100% the game last week. Hangtime achievement was hard af.
