A simpler video this time after spending two weeks making that Streets of SimCity retrospective!

And this is one that's in the same vein as the "Three Weird Mice" videos I've done, just with weird keyboards instead. And well, while I intended to cover three keyboards here, as you'll see in the video only two keyboards ended up getting covered and it still resulted in a half an hour video... Also the third keyboard isn't working, heh.

But yeah, just a straightforward one this week while I work on more involved projects. Have a good one till next time, and thank you for your support!

I think the "Windows 95 Keys" thing is not actually a "system requirement", but it's stating that the keyboard has the Windows Logo Keys, which were new for Windows 95.

hence at 02:16 me saying "oh that wasn't the requirements" and then I move down to show the actual requirements :)

“There you go, now they’re both broken - it’s fine!” had me in stitches 🤣 totally been there before. Thanks for the entertaining look at these interesting keyboards, I’ve never seen any of these before - what a weird trio of input devices!
