You can buy it from the Apple Canada store for $60CDN

It should be compatible with a PC, no reason it shouldn't... unless it was too small... there are rubber grips on the top that hold the laptop in place, and there are 2 additional ones you can put on if you see fit.

WTF?! :laugh: Not the same here, I assure you.

CompuSmart usually carries iCurves. I buy most of my stuff for my Powerbook from them. They usually charge the same prices as you would see on the AppleStore website, but you don't have to pay for shipping! :D Also, if they don't have the item in stock, they'll usually order it for you. My CompuSmart down the block doesn't carry a ton of Apple stuff because there's not a huge market for it in this city, but they'll order it in for me and it usually arrives in a couple of days.

:ninja: Got a new desk today. Been wanting one like this for a long time. :ninja:

Things to note:

Keyboard is an Apple Extended Keyboard. The first one. This is the best keyboard ever, in my opinion.

Apple Computer, Inc. mousepad, circa 1980's on wall.

DooM 3 poster. I already have it pre-ordered.

I thought I should post this mostly b/c I find it funny that I am using a 20 (?) year old keyboard on a two-month old machine...

:ninja: Best Keyboard Ever Award goes to: :ninja:

The Apple Extended Keyboard. It has microswitches in the keys, making for an accurate and fast typing experience. It has full travel and very tactile feedback, as well as an audible feedback that lets you know exactly when the key has been pressed. This is the BEST for gaming on my G5. The only keyboard that even comes *close* is the Tactile Pro by Matias, and it costs $100. This keyboard: free courtesy of Surplus Exchange downtown.

    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
    • "77ee94b helium/windows: winsparkle updater (built-in auto-update support on Windows" If that's what I think it is, that is about the only thing that's been missing from this excellent browser. I guess I'll find out the next time I'm on a Windows machine.
