Hello Everyone!
« on: Thu, 28 July 2016, 10:48:54 »
 :llama:Hello everyone, i'm a huge fan of mechanical keyboard. In 2013 I bought my first keyboard with Cherry MX Black Switch. In 2014 for the first time I assembled my first 60% keyboard with Gateron blue switches and 80g springs.
I'm still looking for the most suitable mechanical keyboard for me.

Howdy howdy. I'm sure you'll find something you like. Or five hundred things you like.

Welcome to Geekhack!

Which keyboards have you got?  What don't you like about them?

Sometimes changing something simple, like the keycaps, can make a huge difference to the feel of a keyboard.
"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
