Propeller Keyboard

I finally broke down and picked up a Parallax Propeller Keyboard...
Every serious Propellerhead should own one of these!

I'm curious why Parallax didn't spring for a "Propeller" key
instead of a "Windows" key? Perhaps for a rev 2?

    I ordered one on Friday night too. Also ordered the mouse and lot of other goodies. I still haven't ordered the monitor though.

    They probably bought the module from some bulk supplier and just put a Parallax logo on it. Cheaper than producing it in house. Of course, I could be totally wrong, but it's a fair assessment.

    That is the correct assessment, it is far cheaper taking a finished product and printing a logo on it than having to custom manufacture the product.
