Lost your keys again?

‘Why bother with any of those annoying Alt-Gr or scroll lock keys?’ says John Hamling at PN Lee Statistics and Computing, which rather undermines the content of this column for the past two months. ‘Become an ubergeek instead,’ he advises.
He directs us to www.daskeyboard.com which claims it is ‘only for the best’.
‘If you are an elite programmer who can write sophisticated code under tight deadlines, someone who makes impossible projects possible, or a silver web surfer your colleagues turn to when they need IT advice, this keyboard is for you,’ says the site. ‘Shouldn't your keyboard reflect your status as one of the elite?’
The selling point of Das Keyboard is that its keys are entirely blank.
At least you know that no one will ever want to steal it.
