Loriano Pagni AKA The Daddy had the keysets produced. They were only available via Kickstarter but he did 2 fundraisers around a year or so apart so he may be willing to do a third if there's enough interest. |

you should be able to buy a Ducky Zero DK2108SZ on Amazon as I am typing from one as i speak. Cost is about £90.00 There is a company in the US too that is doing replacement Cherry MX keycaps if you want to have different coloured ones.

personally i just kept my keyboard as it was with the flourescent blue background as it looks nice especially at night and I have managed to stick two Amiga Key stickers over the correct keys.
The keyboard itself is quite a nice one to use and of very good quality for the price, certainly a lot better than other alternative Cherry MX keyboard which are out there.

Hi,
I'm still around...I've been busy working on the final X500 case (the X500 Pro).
This was the campaign...over two years ago...time flies!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/505470364/amiga-inspired-key-caps-for-mechanical-keyboards?ref=user_menu
There is also a facebook page called:
Custom Amiga keys for mechanical keyboards
Plus several pages on amigaworld.net and amiga.org sites, although all the photos have now disappeared thanks to photobucket's new policy.
These the languages supported:
Italian, U.K., Spanish, German, Swedish (Finnish), Norwegian, American (ANSI), American (ISO), French, Serbian-Latin, Dual Greek-American, Danish, Russian, French-Canadian, French-Belgian.
Thanks.

Sorry, this is an english version of an Amiga. The next one beside has them.
A bit of a thinking, as suggested She drawed the necessary points over the A:s . no problem.
7-years old and want's to make animations.. A phone or pc is stupid. That's my girl!
