Roland .. thanks for the url's in here too ! Have you, by any chance, happen to know where can I find one of those clicky keyboards but without the numpad??? I've been trying to get one for ages .. and the only thing I could come up with was this: http://www.fentek-ind.com/minikb.htm#minikb but to make a long story short, I couldn't buy it 'cause getting it sent over here (Argentina) makes the price tag go as up as us$ 199 (S&H + Wire transfer + local taxes ( = 50% of the price tag + S&H)) ... so .. that kb is out of the question for me ... What I'm _exactly_ looking for is the keyboard you can see in here: http://www.openbsd.org/images/newrack.jpg Please, I kindly ask you or anyone in this list, who could provide me with information on that keyboard, to throw me a pointer to where can I buy one of those keyboards (wether new or used, black or beige, PS2 or USB), model, brand or whatever info you might have at the reach of your hands .. I will handle the rest (doing the numbers on how much would it cost me to get it sent over here). Regardless of the outcome: thanks for reading and for the links you threw :) PS: Gary .. take a look at http://www.fentek-ind.com/ .. albeit a little on the pricey side, they have quite a nice line up of keyboards to offer. Hope you can find the keyboard you are looking for :) -- Blessings Gonzalo Nemmi _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
