Wow I wasn't expecting all of these replies. I've probably read at least 100+ posts from each of you, prior to starting this thread. I almost never post in the New Members section of forums, but I got a friendly & mature feeling after doing so much searching & reading here over the past few months. Oh and I still feel that way
Welcome to Geekhack!
A nice first mechanical keyboard
Any plans for custom keycaps?
Thank You. I'll actually be sharing this with my partner until the Poker S is released. I know nothing more than it being an original poker with backlit LED.
Custom keycaps? Looking and learning about them is how I spent quite a bit of my time after placing my order yesterday, so yes hehe. A friend of mine had reservations about me getting a pure or race due to key pattern/sizes with these keyboards, so I'll probably stick with 33 key sets (37 minus arrow keys).
Maybe I'll set my hopes a little higher when/if this Poker S is released.
Welcome. How do you like the board? How does the difference compare to you? Do you like the Brown switches?
It will not be here until next week. I've only briefly used mechanical keyboards of friends (CM/Corsair/Razer) and really enjoyed reds & browns, however I think I'll need to use the incoming pure w/browns for a little while until I'd feel comfy using reds. I hope that makes sense lol
Ignore the moose and the fry, you should totally get custom key caps for your pure!

At let me tell you from someone who already has made their pure look like what those will make your's look like, it's totes worth it.
Lol. Of course this will eventually happen, but I prefer to learn as much as I can before making any kind of purchase. 'Dumb consumerism' ranks very high in my dislikes of life and it also leads to less happiness for the individual. Anyway, I'm already quite a bit of an iem addict, so I can't see this ending any differently

Hey now...you can't be helpful... anyways, welcome to GeekHack:)
Thank You SmallFry. I could be mistaken, but aren't you one of the "go to " people if I ever need some kind of repair?
