Looking for a keyboard...

[Atrox Moris]

I'm looking for a keyboard without the ****. I need something without the two windows keys (or one windows key and one stacked file view key (it's hard to explain, but it takes the place of the windows key beside the AltGr key)) and without the right click menu key. Effectively a 101/102 Key in a UK layout. And has to be USB. And uses dome-switch rather than buckling spring tech. Also, one that doesn't come with all the other stupid button shortcuts for things like email and messenger and media player, etcetera.

Das Keyboard would be perfect. If it didn't have the three windows keys and buckling spring tech.

Anyone know of any alternatives?

I just bought one of these, brilliant to type with (unless you like long-travel keys), extremely visible in low light conditions without the Christmas-Tree look of other illuminated boards, simple, minimalistic layout with just the keys you need. I'll be keeping this one.

It is a good looking keyboard and I was weighing it up last night. But it's a 104/105 layout. I have no need for all the windows keys and I'd rather have them not there, than sitting redundant.

I was up for hours last night looking for keyboards, but everything had something I didn't want. If it didn't have windows keys, it was buckling spring, if it wasn't buckling spring, it had windows keys. If it wasn't PS/2 it had all the shortcut buttons.

If I can't find one in the next couple of weeks I'm going to make my own. :|

Did you read the first post? Buckling spring and windows keys. But thanks for the effort.

Well the nearest solution I can think of is the logitech G11 keyboard, although it had the keys there still, you can put it into gaming mode so that none of the windows keys pressed will do anything. Hope that helps
