Keyboard of the Month - February - Nominations
« on: Mon, 18 February 2019, 06:40:58 »
Seeing as i'm here, I might as well post the nomination thread for February as well so i don't forget.

So let's have them (I know you have one Funderburker!)


January's winner was GMatt's Retro keyboard with LCD

Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

"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

+1 to this. Salamander's GB is having/had a rough time but it's a beautiful board and well built and this one is UNIQUE.

I'm a sucker for TKLs visually even though I wouldn't use one :D

There is something very wrong in these colours. Used together they look even more wrong.
That picture makes me puke.

Possibly my favorite Noxary build yet :p

Here's a new 4-point tray-mount case I got - it's a Noxary T60 in blue-grey :thumb:

Dressed with a half-plate design of mine, tuned MX Blacks and Hammer CRP Arabic PBT caps.

Care to tell what might be wrong? Elaborating would help me understand what seems that unpleasant to you to the point of inducing vomit. Seems like a pretty sharp comment without much of an explanation.

I would happily +1 all of these but that wouldn't change anything, so I'm not going to.
