From the day it came out, I wanted a Das Keyboard. The idea of having a similar blank keyboard became a goal for me. Like most goals in life that cost money, it took the back burner until I could afford it. When I saw this iBook mod on geektechnique.org, I knew that my expensive dream was coming closer and closer to the zero dollar mark. Only using sandpaper, Mark was able to make his basic iBook keyboard into a Das Keyboard in 30 minutes. After reading this article, and realizing how idiotic my previous thoughts were on making my own, I honestly went out to the garage,dug out the sandpaper, then started work on my Apple Pro White keyboard. Trust me, the Das iBook took less time than it took me to do 10 keys. Give this page a read and I hope to see some Das iBooks and other Das keyboards on the site soon!
P.S. For those wanting to "Das" their full-size desktop keyboards:
