Keyboard of the Month - April - Nominations
« on: Thu, 25 April 2019, 12:20:25 »
Hello all. I've still not decided who has won our X60 R contest, or how to determine the winner. But enough of that.

Here's the nomination thread for April. Please post the best boards you saw this month in here for everyone else to +1!

Nomination thread will last two weeks as per usual. Please bear with me as I scratch my head and think of ideas.
Can we get them to build the Alps ten feet higher and get Cherry to pay for it?

Looks like April has been quite silent... Hopefully people can decide between these two boards.  :p

Thanks for the nomination :)

It is actually hyper grey though. Apple silver is kind of blindingly bright.

Here is a picture of it next to the apple silver corsa billnye used to have:




The purple jane is too stronk

Damn, that had me fooled.

Also that's probably the first time I've seen the colors side by side...

I likes the old nostalgias.
"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
