Introducing the New Das Keyboard 4 Professional for Mac: Switch to the Highest-Performance Mechanical Typing Experience Yet

AUSTIN, Texas, March 10, 2015 — Metadot, maker of award-winning mechanical keyboards, today announced the new Das Keyboard 4 Professional for Mac, its most significant keyboard update for Mac users since the Model S.

Beginning today, Mac OS power-users, designers, editors, coders, gamers, musicians and enthusiasts alike can experience the best-in-class typing experience available on the market for ultimate speed, performance, style and durability. Das Keyboard 4 Professional for Mac is meticulously engineered with a refined vibration-less enclosure, hex screws, cutting-edge look and oversized HiFi-inspired volume knob to enhance the desktop experience and help unleash personal computing potential like never before.

No detail too small, Das Keyboard 4 Professional for Mac is expertly crafted and fully equipped with an array of premium features including:

• Unmatched Mechanical Precision: Gold-plated mechanical switches provide more accurate tactile and audible feedback than standard keyboards and create a distinct, satisfying click with each and every keystroke.
• Exceptional Durability: A new anodized aluminum top panel improves durability and displays a professional, contemporary look and feel on any surface.
• Quick Media Controls: Over-sized volume knob with dedicated media and function controls enable fast and easy audio adjustments and access to Mission Control, Launchpad and display settings without the added hassle of navigating tedious keyboard shortcuts.
• High-Speed File Transfer: SuperSpeed USB 3.0 hub delivers the industry’s first two-port 5Gb/s hub for faster high-resolution picture and video file transfers between USB devices.
• Increased Speed: N-key rollover (NKRO) over USB allows for better, faster gaming, eliminating the need for a PS2 adapter, often required of older keyboards.
• Energy Savings: Instant sleep button puts the connected Mac into sleep mode to help conserve power during even the shortest computing breaks or gaming intermissions.
• Extended Range: Extra-long 6.5-foot long cable increases the potential distance between the keyboard and connected Mac device for more space and setup flexibility.

“Das Keyboard 4 for Mac represents our most advanced and significantly updated offering for Mac OS users yet,” said Daniel Guermeur, creator of the Das Keyboard and CEO of Metadot. “The keyboard is and will continue to be the most important tool in many people’s everyday lives, and Das Keyboard 4 for Mac delivers a superior product that is as highly satisfying and enjoyable to use as it is innovative and efficient, providing the best possible typing experience for Mac power-users. It’s a difference so extraordinary you really have to feel to believe.”
