Hello!
« on: Mon, 22 August 2016, 18:09:17 »
Hi everyone! Bryan from LA here. I started down this path innocently enough, tracking down an old AEKII a few years ago. Then more recently, I saw some images of a colleague's Leopold fc660m, and I started digging... discovering Geekhack, /MK, and the usual haunts. Suffice it to say that I'm quickly learning how addicting this hobby is, and how much gorgeous work is out there from the community! :-)

Of course, it's looking like SA keycaps are my aesthetic obsession — at a time when a ton of amazing GB's have already closed! Looking forward to learning a lot from everyone here.

Welcome to Geekhack!

The best part is that something that looks so good is also completely functional.  Even if it's got blinkenlights, you can watch them, ignore them or turn them off, and it's still a perfectly functional input device.

Give your eyes something nice to look at and your fingers something nice to caress :)

"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
