Hello from Essex, UK

Hi.

I've found myself being drawn into the world of mechanical keyboards over the last couple of years. It started with a Kingston HyperX with Cherry MX Blue keys. This was too noisy for my colleagues so I bought a Kingston KyperX with Cherry MX Brown keys, which I modified with O-rings to make them even quieter. I can't quite decide which of the two I prefer.

Recently, having read about the joys of buckling spring keys, I bought a new Model M Classic from Unicomp, which I love, and only use at home!

I wanted to compare a modern Unicomp with an original Model M so I bought a 1988 Model M on eBay. I'll be posting a question about this soon.

Now I've just gone and ordered a Model F on eBay. I'm getting obsessed. Somebody needs to stop me!
