i'd strongly recommend moving the center two mounting tabs near the spacebar more outwards

did not make the connection that i had gotten the chance to type on an older revision of this board. strongly recommend removing the two bottom center mounting tabs all together -- I thought it felt much better without those screwed in

@daviddgm
I want the price to be low as possible...
But depends how well we go with the GB. There is not a set price yet, but I wanted to go around low - mid 200s.
Possibly lower than 200 if there are more people who are interested.
