It would be cool if you guys made a sealed ver out of polished 440a stainless steel. Have the caseing seamless deepdrawn. And billet cut and polished keys. You could make a nema 7a ver. You'd have to use glass for the keys so the light could get through the letters. processes excist for glass in metal seals. they are used a lot for refrigation compressors for the electrial termals. I would buy a IS backlit keyboard to use at my desk since i work with explosion proff stuff and like the qulity of milled stainless. BTW 440a is top grade used for medal insturments and can be tempered to rockwell c50's and doesn't rust or corode. Would probley cost half of my pc.
