Keyboard of the Month - September - Nominations
« on: Fri, 28 September 2018, 03:40:38 »
Holy crap it's way past that time again isn't it?

Well here it is, the nomination thread for September's edition of Keyboard of the Month.

Last month's winner was Vewy Nice's TMO50 Founder's Edition



Nominations will be open for around two weeks. Happy hunting!
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

+1 for the FJELL (a touch of yellow never goes astray ;) )
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Thank you. I'm not good at identifying old boards and was just skimming over the thread as I remembered it's something unique.

Can I nominate my refurbished linear Alps AT101w?




Edit: Shouldn't there be a thread for October?
