Hi,

For months I visited without registering.
But there is here amazing stuff, and now I'm in to discover/buy some. :)

A Filco TKL brought me interest in mechanical keyboards.

Welcome to Geekhack!

You have selected a nice sturdy keyboard to start your collection with.
"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
