I had one until it got eaten by a passing Panda Bear.

I had one made of chocolate too, until my wife found it.

Thanks a lot, Pacov.

I'll take one of each  (Keyboard and Ginger).

Mary Ann for the win!

 

I'd love to use that keyboard if it fits my fingers. The feel of wood vs plastic would be nice.

I like the idea of the keyboard.  Kind of makes me want to make a small oak frame facade for my monitor.  Too much plastic

Bamboo is becoming the new hemp ...  a fast growing, biodegradable resource.

Using a SimpleTech (re)drive, cased in recycled aluminum and bamboo.  This keyboard would probably be looked upon as a long lost relative when we humans are asleep.

I must say, I never "got it" about Ginger. I found Mary Ann much more attractive.

Actually, I think this concept is very do-able. Bamboo is an extremely tough and resilient resource, which is more than I can say about my plastic keyboard that looses the letters on the keys about every 8 or 9 months. I also think that Rattan would also make for a good and durable keyboard. You may think that all this sounds a little weird, but my other hobby is creating my own custom jewelry, so the small intricasies of this concept appeals to my inner creativity.

I wonder if typing on several bamboo keyboards would sound like a gamelan ensemble?

I thought this ridiculous till I came upon this news from today...

Teens Getting Drunk On Liquid Hand Santizers

I can't help but wonder that the war on drugs fosters usage of these more dangerous substances.

I'll need a half-coconut wireless mouse to go with that and one with illuminated keys.

I believe that is exactly the keyboard the Amish used in their failed Y2K world takeover attempt.

I imagine an Oak Burl Knob. Carved to a roundness ideal for the hand. Ergonomic fit, warm to the touch, and having the intricately swirled look of burled wood. Sand and polished to a splinter free, warm shine.
