Perhaps you could edit your post so the url would work? Just return to the page and select the Edit button in your post.

However, members and guests who don't read German, such as myself, would not find this page of interest. What does it mean, or say? If English is indeed the common language for LQ, maybe you could translate the page for us, so we could share in the Ebay fun!

First of all, even if he did edit it, its only his second post and a link won't work til after 5 posts.

Second of all, this isn't even Linux related, why'd you post this in the Linux - General forum?

Read the rules at http://www.linuxquestions.org/rules.php

Moving thread to General where its more suitable.

Ok, from what I gather he's selling the windows keys off his keyboards?

Why the heck would anyone (especially linux users here) want to buy that?

BajaNick · 09-11-2003, 02:29 PM

There was a space where is did not belong thats why the url didnt work and I could not read it cuz its in norwegian or something but it looks like windows keys are for sale, are they special or something? lol.

nice to know i could buy replacement window keys if i wanted to but since my keyboard only cost £2.50 i think id just go buy a new keyboard.

joke

I guess its funnier in norwegian (or with moose

although those are swiss moose mmmmmmmm doesn't fit...ah well so much for nodding to Monty Python)

For a badly translated version of the eBay page at the top, go to www.altavista.com and click on translate.

It's a really funny joke - selling the 2 windows keys 'cos he's going to Linux. Help me up someone.

But, can you get Tuxified replacements for the Windoze keys?

This screams ''PC MOD''.

That would be sweet to have linux keys instead of the windows keys. You could silkscreen the windows keys.
