Collectable Keyboard

[Ole Juul]

This isn't vintage yet, but it will be a nice collectible. I always look at stuff with a view to what it will look like in the future. Ten bucks at WalMart - I'd post a link but their site is a bit too flaky for that. It's their Crayola 3pc set and comes with mouse as well. I like the space bar, but where's the "OMG" key?

PS: mods put this in humour or genofftop if you like

Is that USB? That would be a funny gag here at work.

Shame that it doesn't have a numeric keypad, though.

I used to have one when Chloe was little, but she pretty much shunned it in favor of the adult keyboard. I passed it along to another child somewhere along the line. Kids don't want to feel like they're playing with a 'toy' keyboard, they want to use the one the grown-ups use. (It's us adults that the Crayola board appeals to).

Here's the link. I'm gonna order one. I don't use the numeric key pad anyhow.

The keys are not even offset from the above and below rows. typing on that would drive you crazy.

Offsetting them would just confuse the little kids...
