    What a bummer. I was certainly sure that my Arduino Uno was able to send keyboard commands over the USB port but I was wrong. Only later versions (Due, Leonardo, Micro, Zero) are able to do that.

      @adiwan Why is that, some weird firmware issue, or because of some hardware limitation ?

        @critialcloudkicker There is a way to hack this feature into the Uno but I'd like to have a vanilla way.

          @adiwan No idea what you are trying to use it for, But that arduino board I was just looking at is just as expensive as a luxury raspberry pi 3 starter set... or 2 Banana Pro's... wow.

            @critialcloudkicker If you buy Arduinos from China you can get them for a bargain price. As for projects I wanted to do: right now I'm just toying with it.

          @adiwan I wanted the context of this dash to be about attempting to hack Uno the card game.

            @thelastgherkin An Arduino Uno is a cheap micro controller. The later versions have the ability to act as human interface devices (mouse, keyboard) and I tried to do something with that. To my surprise (and lack of research) I didn't know that the Uno can't do that out-of-the-box.
