Hello ppl's :D
« on: Sat, 02 February 2013, 09:39:49 »
Hello All,

How are you all doing? Just took up an interest in mechanicals from looking at some of your awesome boards! I'm a software developer so I guess the extra speed would increase productivity  :))

I haven't had a mechanical before, so I have ordered a white Keycool 87 with Blue MX's from qtan, and a tonne of custom keys from the USA to get me started. Can't wait for them all to arrive  ;D

Looking forward to being part of this awesome community you have here!

Welcome to Geekhack!

There is a keycap maker in the UK too - might save you some postage now that the price has doubled.

"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
