Huh, I never looked at it that way. It really looks like a strange emoticon. It's German ISO layout, that key is for <, >, and |. This is okay for normal everyday typing but not for programming. What's great about the Pok3r is that you have 3 extra programmable layers (in addition to the default layer) you can switch between, and on every layer you can rebind keys, key combinations, or entire macros to another key, so I made a programming layer where <, >, /, \ and ()[]{} are in easier-to-reach locations. And a gaming/browsing layer where I put the arrow keys on IJKL, because they are usually Fn hotkeys.
"Cactus Arriba Arriba man was slain by Overzealous Tree farm harvester" Ded. Dunno what my tree farm was smoking but I want some. Path I'm sorry for your loss, but he's gone.
I have a Phanteks Enthoo Primo full tower case... awesome quality but way too large and heavy. About half of the case is empty space because I don't have enough stuff to put in there. Looking for a replacement already - I need one that is silent (like, completely shuts out all noise) and has no case window (it may look cool but all the LEDs are distracting and I can't sleep with them on).
