So the keyboard buttons change along with the program you're running?
That's some very cool shit...!

About the keyboard: Get rid of Function keys already. Make alt-1 = F1. Out with the old.

Also, in America something like 70% (made up figure) of the people don't understand that in math * is the same thing as "x" for multiplication. Something needs to be done about that.

Perhaps the keypad Enter should just say "=" as well.

This keyboard is awesome, but the layout of keys definitely could use some work. The language key right next to escape smells like trouble. Function keys are stupid (Not just the keys, but where they are located is superfluous in the flow of modern computing). Directional arrow keys could be axed, and we can have a lengthy debate on backspace vs. delete.

Edit: I wonder if the keyboard can do DVORAK?
What with you and OLED?
Seriously, get over it..
clueless goth

No really, wtf is the big deal with him and OLED

Okay Soapboi... Here.

Screens that thin, that use much less power than LCD, and are 7000x faster than CRTs.

They have better display resolution, clarity, contrast, everything is better.

They can bend, be installed on glass (with no visible wires) and kick ass beyond any reasonable doubt.

Right ok, but why would you even THINK that each of those keys had a little OLED screen in them.. thats just retarded.. o_O

They don't have any screens yet, because it's not a real product, idiot.

They would never use LCD screens because of power consumption, heat, and the facts that OLEDs are cheaper, can be printed (Yes, with a printer), and are to totally replace LCD and CRT as soon as they fix all the longevity problems.

Epson has an OLED printer. Crazy, isn't it?

id assume (yes assume) that the "lcds" in those keys would be LOW END CHEAP OLD SCHOOL led type screens..

then again, prolly wrong..

Printable.. neat O_o

Yes, you're wrong.

There is no chance in hell that any company would use LCDs in a final product of this sort. They would use OLED.

If you understood OLED, you'd also understand why this is so easy to understand. Understand?

Listen, this should clear things up a bit. If Epson ever decides to sell their OLED Printer as a consumer product... :lol: You could print your own fucking screen.

Right there, the longevity problem is solved. Right now the screens only last for ten years (older OLED would only last for two years) but if you could print out a new one whenever you want, it wouldn't matter.

Also worth noting: You get three times the detail and display accuracy with OLED versus LCD. OLED pixels are over top of one another. RGB OLED screens have three layers, one for each color. LCDs and CRTs have the three colors next to one another in the pixel.

This is also the reason they save power and have superior black levels and brightness.

Russians own.

Post by **schlockey** » Thu Jul 14, 2005 4:01 pm

You cant be russian. Russians all own small 3 cylinder, 1litre engines in small cars. These have been proven when i browse for russian cars in google.

This situation has made me believe that you cant be russian, because if you were you would have a small engined car. Or do you?

Russian cars have normal 1.5L-1.7L 4cyl engines, some of them have the small ones. But most russians don't drive russian cars. There are more S600 Mercedes in Moscow than in the entire Europe.
