Hello all, from OCN.
« on: Sun, 04 November 2012, 21:49:20 »
Hello all, a new member here from OCN.... Brand new into the world of keyboarding.

Look forward to learning much. Wood wrist rest was bought from a fellow member at OCN, and I believe was made by a GH resident The_Beast. Caps are from WASD keyboard/OCN residents and is my first mechy.

Welcome to Geekhack!

A nice stable start to the hobby obsession of mechanical keyboard collecting.
"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

Welcome, we'll overlook that you're from OCN since you have a wrist rest from The_Beast. ;D

Welcome. A little bit of detective work and I can guess who you bought the rest from haha.

My signature hasn't changed since 2012. I should really update it.

My detective mode accidentally kicked in: rest is from akimbo, no?

Welcome to GH, where keyboards and keycaps are both plentiful and rare.
40% layout, anyone?

Nope...I like the zebra one more.  PH/LW was nice, but it clashed with too many keysets.  Besides, there's no point in hoarding them...it's best to share the love and let someone else appreciate it.
