Greetings from the UK
« on: Mon, 27 July 2015, 20:12:21 »
Hi All,

I'm Rob and I live in the UK! I'm into counter-strike and gaming as a whole, not much of a typist but I love hot slick keyboards :D

I'm currently using a Pok3r with MX clears and I absolutely love it, but I'm looking into getting some more keyboards to build out my lineup, next is Topre!

Thanks for reading and I'll see you all soon.

- Rob F

Welcome to Geekhack!

A good keyboard you have started your collection with, and a Topre on top of that would be excellent!  Any idea which Topre?  HHKB?  RealForce?  Novatouch?
"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
