jazzman1 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Hey guys, does anybody know a shop in Nort America where I could buy it? I got one many years ago from Norway I think, manufactured by IBM but it's old and broken. I went through many computer's stores in Canada but without any success. Apple's keyboard is not an option b/s I hate them also.... jazz....

Jessica Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Honestly it'd probably be easier to just get a regular keyboard and map the windows key to something else. There is that keyboard with nothing on the keys Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278566-a-keyboard-without-windows-buttons/#findComment-1433040 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessica Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Hence my suggestion to map them to something useful. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/278566-a-keyboard-without-windows-buttons/#findComment-1433061 Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzman1 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Most of the time I'm using my machine connecting to different linux servers teminals with old kernels versions. So, I tried once to map those buttons to my VIM but without any success. Did you see somewhere a keyboard without windows buttons in USA?

kicken Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 They does it matter if you end up with a "useless" windows key. A keyboard without one is not likely to be any cheaper than one with one. Having a key that does nothing won't screw anything up. Buy a keyboard you like the layout/form-factor of rather than fixating on a silly key. Pop the key off if bothers you that much.

jazzman1 Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 There is no problem to use this keyboard, of course I could rub out the symbol if it starts to bother me too much. I just wonder if anybody is seen that kind of keyboard somewhere in the stores?
