    It's not "No keyboard" as in "absence of keyboard".

    The reason why this keyboard is so expensive is that it has been crafted by hand by Japanese artists out of the finest bamboo and jade. Each key implements a Japanese character which is then acted out in a mini-hologram in front of the screen as a No play (sometimes spelt Noh play).

    The only odd thing I see is that the word "Brilliant" looks like it's spelled with four 'l' characters: Brllllant. If that's the joke then the lack of resolution in the photo kills it, since most of the 'i's look like 'l's.

    Or TRWTF is that I've spent 5 minutes staring at this trying to figure out what the fsck the WTF is.

    I think it's just a running joke here that anything where "brilliant" is spelt "brilliant" is incorrect, since we know that the correct spelling is "brillant".

    Brilliant is spelled right; the font just looks odd.

    It says "Brilliant", which is the correct spelling. Granted, the font makes it very difficult to read.

    Pretty good overview, though one WTF with it is not knowing how to pronounce “ç".

  • joepie91 (unregistered)

    Perhaps it's a little sad that I almost certainly can tell how that number formatting went botched.

    Evidently somebody didn't pay attention in class and used floats for currency-like numbers, and then proceeded to number_format it...

    Actually, no. You're not right. The country is called the Netherlands. Holland is a region. See? Nothing to make mind up about.
