I just ordered my first keyboard thats over $400, and its not even new. I'm so l33t i'm keeping the identity of the board secret from everyone. I plan to ambush the fedex driver, take him out to tge shed for interrogation, and if he knows too much, well there's a wooded area nearby...  Lots of coyotes, etc.

I hear that if you boil the bones that it makes them easy to grind up and sprinkle around.

Tired meme.

How come the Germans never told me about Lena?
[video=youtube;8QSgNM9yNjo]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QSgNM9yNjo[/video]

because most of people dont like her and how she behaves, shes a real fake person and we are happy she hasnt won.
she has gotten what she has deserved :-)

i dont like her and crawl some german forums, you will see, she isnt that popular in our country in addition to this eurovision song contest a lot of people were pissed to see stefan raab and anke engelke´s moderation. because there far more symphatic moderators (talk masters..) the last ESC was cool, that was more  fun in comparsion to this year.

^ Which is kind of an ironic statement because watching someone try to remove a key in the middle of the keyboard with just their fingers would be rather funny.  Paperclips work fine but certainly not as efficient as a key puller, especially if you're doing a larger volume.

I use keypullers more than any other tool when working on keyboards. Except maybe a philips. $2 and it makes pulling keys infinitely easier. Lots of IC pullers work too.

I have a metallic keypuller but every time I'm about to use it, I'm mortally petrified of the possibility that it will scratch the sides of my precious keycaps. :(

I guess I should start looking for a plastic one.

After the round 1 doubleshot key group buy it was claimed by some on here that the reverse is actually true:  The plastic ring-type puller included in that buy was scratching keys.

Which is why round 2 used "TOY" to refer to the plastic one and "TOOL" for the metal type.

Come to think of it...

I didn't need to spend all that money on a kinesis advantage, I could have just stuck with the ms natural for a few more weeks.

Gutted.  Saving that money would have been totally worthwhile and to be honest, needed, after I gave up my IT related career.

Bless.

I paid 160 bucks for my Filco ninja black switch keyboard.

It FEELS a million times nicer to type and play games on than any rubber dome keyboard, and the build quality is amazing.

How does this make me a sucker? I just wanted the best possible keyboard with key letters printed on the FRONT of the key not on the key itself as to prevent wear.

I will keep this keyboard for at least the next 3-5 years, so it is well worth its investment. It is rated at 50 million key presses lifetime, and that will last well past 5 years.

Terrible trolling attempt.
