Optimus Maximus Second Test

hah, well people would probably buy this so the looks on their desktop will look badass. if you were to ask me, i would save my $1800 and buy a $50 multimedia keyboard with shortcuts on the side. i dont even look at my keyboard no point of looking fancy when your always looking at the screen >:D

[JanCBeck]

aha, it's like Steve Jobs presenting an iphone which simply displays a color-switching apple logo on the display and nothing else after 3 years of inventing.

[bomfirit]

wtf?

[Thoran666]

riiight, pritty crappy just a few lights blinking.

my christmas tree can do that and it costs much less than this keyboard.

[3xSxE]

Woooooweeeeee... nice... it must be christmas again because of all this beautiful lights blinking! But where is the christmas-tree?

[TrueSoreThumb]

That's it?

[stradric]

Let me know when you're actually displaying the icons on the keys. I'm not impressed. How long has this thing been in development now?

[modobomber]

so make it yourself. they are trying to not onyl make it work from scratch, get the bugs out, and keep it customizable, but keep it affordable. if you can do better, then do it.

[stradric]

Ya, because $1500 is affordable?! Good one.

And since when do I need a keyboard company to criticize someone's product? I would rather just implement this as a keyboard overlay that shows up on your screen because who looks at their keys anyway?

[TangoKing123]

well no wonder you can't afford one! You're too busy critising others rather than concentrating on your own thing. I look forward to receiving mine in December and being amongst the first to write "dynamic" Perl scripts. Yes I said dynamic ie the code changing on the keyboard as I type. It'll save a ton of time! Time is money!!

[stradric]

I can afford it. I just think $1500 for a keyboard is a tremendous waste. I could upgrade my computer twice over for that amount. You should rethink it yourself if the only thing you have in store is writing Perl scripts. Get out of the 80s buddy. Perl is dead.

[anonazero]

what you idiots dont realize is that this super expensive stuff eventually filters down to the commonfolk the same way mercedes technology from 10 years ago is commonplace in every vehicle on the road today.

[squareinch]

oh please! save this crap for the investors...

[s34dr4g0n]

Awesome! Art Lebedev Studio, you guys are pioneers like Jay Miner, who designed the Lorraine/Amiga computer :)

[smileman66]

This is so kickass. Keep up the good work guys.
