Yea, it's a MAC but I can't remember the exact model. It's a really nice keyboard even before he changed the keys.
I'm pretty sure it's this wireless Bluetooth model

:O very cool... nice
@DonT-FeaR - Patience is synonymous with insanity apparently. Thanks!
@rendermandan - Thanks mate... once I got in the groove of it time flew by.
@The boy 4rm oz - I threw that idea around, and got a quote from a local machine shop but I discovered two things... 1-about $8+ for each key all said and done, 2-the projected weight of the copper keys is about the same as the weight needed to depress the key itself, so the keys would all be - nearly - depressed all the time with the weight.
If anyone has wondered where I've been...
well...
I've been having a crap load of fun in my new Buick Grand National.. snow is coming soon so I only have a small window to play.
This car is unreal...it kicks like a bloody landmine for those of you in the know about cars here's the magic of my baby:
She pulls just over 11.4seconds in the 1/4 mile at 126mph!!!
To paint you all a picture of comparison:
McLaren F1 11.1s 134mph
Porsche Carrera GT 11.4s 132mph
Chevrolet Corvette Z06 11.5s 127mph
Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren 11.6s 130mph
Ferrari F40 11.7s 125mph
Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 11.8s 126mph
Porsche 959 11.8s 119mph
Pagani Zonda C12 S 7.3 11.8s 129mph
... mind you my Buick will max out at about 145mph.
I had to install new racing radials in order to past the government safety inspection - the first time I used the transmission brake I actually managed to shred rubber off the wheels. I took a look at my scanmaster computer and it was showing 65mph... and the wheels were still peeling out - UNREAL! And once the tires warmed up I found myself with a sore neck at the end of the day. I'm in LOVE!
Back on track...er... off the track as it would be:
I get a Performance PC's delivery tomorrow with 43 items inside.
I get my 2nd pump and some more 90degree swivels from AquaComputer on Friday.
The parts designs have been finalized and I'll be sending the plans out to be manufactured. Water jet cutting, then laser raster engraving, then bending will be done on the copper in the next couple weeks. I'd have sent them already but I want the parts inside the performance PCs package in my hands first - just to be certain of the fit.
Rounding the home stretch now - I've continuously upped the complexity of this project over the past month which hasn't made anything easy and has pushed my completion dates back... but I always say "take your time and do it right." Regardless of that - I can smell the end coming.
Yeah copper cast keys would be very heavy lol. A hell of a car you have there mate, extremely fast.
Can't wait to see the goodies when you get em.
goodies woot!!!! cant wait
Grand Nationals are amazing cars. I'd love to get my hands on one.
One of my parcels arrived today:
First up the super skinny Black Ice Stealth GT 120mm rad that will cool the mosfets/nb/sb.
I also got a whole bunch of copper ram sinks that I'll be scattering about the motherboard - for pimp value.
With the unnecessary cooling comes a laptop ram cooler for the Pico-ITX ram.
The second loop needed tubing, and I figured 3/8" will more than cover that - my only issue with this tube is that it's a slightly lighter shade of black (also called GREY?!?!? way to drop the ball PPCs!) than my 1/2 tubing... so it will go right into the bin and I'll be ordering more from NCIX (the place where I got my other tubing).
The flash shows well just how GREY this 'black' tubing is.... useless.
In an attempt to minimize my tubing lengths i got a few anti kink coils:
I also needed some dark nickel plated 3/8" bitspower fittings:
I also got some bitspower T fitting for my fill points:
Some G1/4" bitspower male-male adapters:
Two bitspower fillports... that don't have caps... i didn't realize that and I expected some sealed caps and not just though holes.
Space constraints need to me replace one of my 133cfm Scythe fans with a slim Yate Loon (super lame company name IMO) fan.
Some thermal grease... anyone have any experience with this stuff in comparison to AS5?
And lastly some adhesive thermal pads.
Sorry for the crappy pics, lighting is poor in my basement.
Hopefully more updates tomorrow if my next Aquacomputer package arrives.
Thanks for tuning in... tune in tomorrow. Same Bat time, Same Bat channel.
Nice goodies. Those heat sinks will look pimp.
