Editing Kinesis Contoured (section)

==Trivia==
It was originally a request from Kinesis to Cherry for a "quiet blue switch" that caused Cherry to make the [[Cherry MX Brown]]<ref name="GH_Kinesis">Geekhack — [http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=37100.msg706886#msg706886 Split with great keys?], post by ([[Kinesis Corporation|Kinesis]] employee) ''natas206''.

Several keyboards were used as props in the movie [http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0119654/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 Men in black (1997)], painted black.
Demand resulting from the movie eventually persuaded Kinesis to offer the keyboard in black.
In the movie, each keyboard was placed together with a [[Spaceball|Spaceball 2003]] 6DOF [[joystick]], also painted black. The Spaceball's profile being similar to the Kinesis' is a lucky coincidence.
The telephone next to them is a Swedish ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ericofon Ericofon]'' (also a collectors' item).
