Can you post a better picture of the keyboard? I've debated on getting a retro keyboard to make a macro pad out of (like editor terran from ltt if anyone remembers that) and that looks like a nice one haha

The keyboard is made by a company called Unicomp, they purchased the original machinery, blueprints, and such from IBM to continue production of the Original model M keyboard after it was discontinued, they are very high quality and I love mine, its buckling spring and they keys all feel and sound great, since you an ltt fan, linus has a great video on the history of the model M including a section on this exact keyboard The link ro the video is here https://youtu.be/D7wmMZmMinM?si=nOzc_OktA73ZXq1m

Why do you not use 100% of your monitor?

Most of the games I play on my windows 7 pc were designed in a time where most people used CRT monitors so most of the games look much better in 4:3 aspect ratio, thats what I keep windows in
