hi
« on: Wed, 09 January 2013, 21:35:56 »
Greetings from midwest America. On par with many, I'm fairly new to the mechanical keyboard scene and have recently made my inaugural purchase: a pre-owned Leopold FC200RT with minor prior usage.

11502-011504-1

Certainly nothing special, but I've grown quite fond of it. Browns seem to suit me well, though I must admit, my experience with other switches is next to nonexistent.

Anyway, just wanted to throw myself out there (and thus put myself that much closer to satisfying the minimum post requirement for classifieds :) ). Hope everyone is enjoying their day!

Welcome to Geekhack and that's a nice first board for you.  I had the first Leopold when EK started to carry them.  Very solid board indeed.  :)

Thanks, and good to hear! :D I'm in the process of further ricing it out currently. Looking to get my hands on a red escape keycap and perhaps some matching red R1 media keys.

Not an inexpensive hobby by any means. :)

Welcome to Geekhack!

Love the classic white on black look :)
"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
