Copilot key will eventually be required in new PC keyboards, though not yet.

Stop being such a socialist. They need to sell more keyboards, and to make the keyboards you own unique to their brand.

Have you met keyboard people? You don’t need to do anything to sell them more keyboards.

This is me. Saw a cool keycap set the other day, and before I knew it BOOM! New keyboard.

I only have 4 (working ones) so far, but that's still probably one too many. xD

True but we’re not interested in adding a dedicated adware/spyware button

I said this above... I've had the same Das Keyboard model so long that the USB ports in the side are USB 1.0. And I will use it as long as I can because it's a great keyboard and I've never needed a new keyboard since I bought it even when I've needed a new computer. Fuck this shit.

I'm still using a Kinesis Contoured daily with PS/2 connection. Pretty impressed a new motherboard still came with a combo mouse/keyboard PS/2 port.
