Home / I-Opener Areas / I-Opener Technical Stuff It's not a Dauphin, but it's still available... Small keyboard, if anyone's interested

It's not a Dauphin, but it's still available... (modified 0 times) zephyrus Profile With the drying-up of the surplus Dauphin keyboard supply, the current bargain seems to be this one from Marlin P. Jones . It's not quite as small as the Dauphin, but it is just a little narrower than the i-o's case. And it has a 6-foot cord. Even though it has a Windows key, there is a happy little ironic twist for those of us (well, me at least) using DR-DOS. The Windows key maps to ctl-esc, which is the default DR-DOS task switching key combo... By the way, I just discovered that bbb65 mentioned this keyboard back on 4-05-2000. And I thought I was being original. 07-08-2001 23:39:23

RE:It's not a Dauphin, but it's still available... (modified 0 times) uwiz Profile The Dauphin keyboard that I tried really, really hurt my hands... and I have long, thin fingers. I can't imagine what it would do to someone who had bigger hands! Weirdly, I'm currently using a spare iMac keyboard and borg usb optical mouse via the usb port on the back. It works like a charm and it takes very little space... you just have to remember to enable USB Keyboard in the BIOS. I've also gotten it to emit a Ctrl-Alt-Del - if anyone's curious I'll post the key combo later when I'm back in front of a PC with an iMac keyboard :) 07-12-2001 16:18:12

RE:It's not a Dauphin, but it's still available... (modified 0 times) Kludgemeister Profile I've never actually seen a Dauphin, but I'm borrowing a BTC Mini while I wait for my MPJA mini to arrive. The BTC is a neat little keyboard--the only thing I need to remember is to not boot up with numlock turned on, since the number pad is embedded in the alpha keys... All kludge, all the time. 07-12-2001 21:24:22
