Hi, |
22 |
|
23 |
thanks a lot for all your help! :) |
24 |
|
25 |
I will try it out all ! :)) |
26 |
|
27 |
By the way (the same way! ;)) |
28 |
I am in search of such an "model m" IBM-keyboard. A colleque |
29 |
yesterday calls me and said, that he found one for me in the |
30 |
PC-junk at the basement of the building he is working in. |
31 |
Hopefully it is one which is 1.) fully working and 2.) |
32 |
with german keyboard layout. Fingers crossed. |
33 |
|
34 |
Currently I am using a Cherry MX 1000 G80 keyboard -- since |
35 |
15 years now without any kind misfunctional behaviour (I mean: |
36 |
the keyboard shows no misfunction... ;). It is one with |
37 |
a big roung AT-connector (pre PS2-era). |
38 |
|
39 |
The typewriter sound "project" is just kind of joke: I am |
40 |
imaging the face of people on the phone, when I say: "Oh, |
41 |
wait a moment...I will look into the database..." and |
42 |
then: "clack, clackclack, clack, clackclackclack" -- they |
43 |
will here a typewriter <grin>. |
44 |
|
45 |
Happy hacking! |
46 |
best regards, |

spring" mechanism in action: |
