Non staggered mechanical keyboard?
« on: Tue, 21 October 2014, 11:20:28 »
I tried google but there's no answer, does anyone in GH know where I can buy or order a custom one for less than $200-215?

Features must include
-cherry switches
-usb
-at least 6kro over usb


Thanks in advance

The keyword you're looking for is matrix or ortho-linear.

PS/2 Access-IS POS keypads supported NKRO, not sure about the newer ones. You could convert the old one to USB though (and avoid the awful proprietary programming software as well).

What about Ergodox or Truly Ergonomic? Ergonomic keyboards are usually matrix.

New TECK is supposed to have Kailh switches, not Cherry. It doesn't really fit the budget either.

ErgoDox DIY kit is barely under $200 in the US (Massdrop) or around €150 in the EU (FalbaTech).

Neither is matrix, because of staggered columns.
