You hold the Fn key with your pinky for that, I would guess inspired by the cursor movement from the vi text editor in Unix (which is Ctrl-H, J, K, L). For people who like that, it could be better than normal, as you do not have to move your right hand. EDIT: I was wrong. I found this picture where you can see the layout: http://elitekeyboards.com/proddata/images/pdkb400w_full.jpg. The arrow keys are [ ; ' and /. It seems you have to move your hand a little to the right, there is the Fn key under the Enter key, which you press with your pinky, and then your index and middle fingers should rest on top of the arrow keys. It could work out well. | ||

I'm not that familiar with the numbers thing, but since I want the most quiet one I guess I should get the linear action? And Amazon seems cheapest since it's free shipping (I live in the Netherlands) Please help this poor lurker out :D | ||

I do really love the design of the Das; what is the nicest looking keyboard with red switches (preferably with glossy surface)? I know it sounds kinda vain to ask about such a thing, but if I am going to pay 90+ for a keyboard, I want it to look sweet. | ||

How on earth am I supposed to be able to use this? Picture(Shit quality warning): ![]() Judging from the LEDs in the upper right hand corner, you have a Wyse terminal keyboard. If you're really interested you can build a converter from a teensy, but it definitely not a plug and play type deal. Look on geekhack for more info. | ||
