Working LEGO Computer Keyboard

[Hapori Tohu]

Got bored of your standard throwaway cheap plastic keyboard? Even if you have a professional multi-colour LED-backlit mechanical keyboard, this other keyboard makes yours look mainstream: a working keyboard with LEGO bricks as keys. Sure, it may not look as cool as a Cherry MX RGB but it's scientifically proven that everything is twice as awesome with LEGO bricks (I have a beautiful mathematical proof for that but I'm afraid the space might not be enough to fit it ).

These inventions never cease to amaze me.

I think it'd be cool if Lego licensed a similar keyboard that you could easily reprogram and relabel with bricks. Something a little more streamlined, of course—not taking away from the awesomeness of this build, but it seems like it would be impractical to use at the level I use my own keyboard.

That is pretty cool; especially the fact that it actually works. Getting one of those would definitely be a great way to LEGO up your office.

I saw a functional lego printer once.

I would love to have a LEGO keyboard for my computer. That way, if I ever wanted to change its look, I could make it happen.

Lego keyboard = awesome.
