Any plans for SA sets?

The SP sets are a little plain jane, and I'm guessing the GBs cost more due to their customization and more limited manufacturing runs.

Some of the custom GB colorways and designs are really beautiful, so I feel they are definitely worth paying extra money for.  I love the Penumbra colorway.  After seeing it, I started using it for all my IDE/text editors. :)

The reason I posted in this subforum is my assumption that SA sets directly from SP would be cheaper.  Their DSA sets are significantly cheaper than the DSA GBs I've seen.  Cheaper enough that I pulled the trigger and was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy DSA for gaming.  I'm hoping to have a similar experience with SA for typing/coding, but for an experimental/trial set I'm not willing to pay $85 for a base Penumbra set.  Even the ~$65 base Commando set is a bit steep (although I'll pay this much if Halverson responds in the affirmative to my PM). 

Regardless of my personal budget, I think SA has gotten pretty positive reviews from the community and I bet they'd be more popular if there were cheaper sets that were obtainable outside of GBs/classifieds.

Aren't all the DSA sets SP sells blank?

I think so.  I actually prefer blanks due to my custom, HHKB-esque layouts, but I bet people would still buy them just to try out the profile before dropping the money for a fully legendized (best made up word ever) set.  SP should run an IC for this  :D

There's also Nuclear Data Green.

Although it looks like not much can stop this one from proceeding.

Keep an eye on the Crimean -- actual Nuclear War might,

But other than that...

Go Team Nuclear!
