    What’s the longest single word your can type with that keyboard? Best I can do is “yucky”.

        1. You win, I think. That definitely seems to be an accepted spelling.
        2. Pretty sure this particular keyboard is gonna be only caps. One of my keyboards even does this with numlock. It is on by defualt, has no numlock key, and if I plug in a second or use software to turn it off, the keyboard turns it back on like a useless machine.

          i have a crappy dell wireless keyboard here that doesn’t have a NUMLOCK. in some linux distributions or environments it defaults OFF, and i have to rig the DE or numlockx to enable it at login. i only keep it around because it’s a kb+mouse set that shares one dongle… it’s handy to move from pc to pc when i need to.

            Mine was made for a chemical analyzer for medical and drug testing (it has a METH key, among others!), and firmware-wise the customization was sort of a hack. Keeping numlock on was necessary to make it work how they intended.
