Finally, I can type in Klingon
SlashGear —
... I’ve used an English language keyboard for years, mainly because it’s the only layout I feel comfortable with.

... sonnet, or a love threat on your computer, assuming your computer still has a PS/2 port. It's a good thing the Klingon alphabet has 26 characters, or Cherry would have had to redesign the keyboard to shove an extra key on there (or take one off).

Klingon Keyboard: for serious Trekkies only
DVICE Atom Feed —
... a keyboard with Klingon symbols on it, that's what!
Not only does this keyboard let you type in a made-up language, but it also connects with a PS/2 cable, something no current computers use. So to recap: if you're a super nerd with an old computer and you want to type in Klingon, this is for you. For the other 99.99999999% of the world, we'll stick to regular keyboards. And for those who need their Klingon fix now and then, stick to online Klingon translators.

At any rate, this will set you back a whopping $63, though I’m sure a good portion of that is due to the alien technology contained within.
