Yup, the HHKB is a sparkling gem in a landscape littered with garbage.

And for those of you without lots of money, the low-priced HHKB-lite models are also very nice (they have the same great layout and design, but more pedestrian components).

[I have two HHKB-lites, one from the '90s, another bought a few years ago (the former still working flawlessly).

In the landscape of computing, where most things seem obsolete overnight, it's also rather amazing that the HHKB has managed to stay in production for so long ... although it's clearly a bit of a niche product, it's been around in mostly the same form factor since the mid-90s! They're clearly doing something right!]
