Really nice combinations with this board.  I love the white bottom with smoke grey top and the grey 'Hammerite' bottom with the smoke grey top.  Really want to get one or two of these.

Can't put my love for this design into words :thumb:. Will have to force myself not to check for updates daily until the GB.

I am really looking forward to this GB. I am definitely "in"!

There have been questions about future top case colors and layout options. I would to ask about the possibility of future PCB options - specifically, I would be VERY interested in a rotary knob at the top of the macro column on the left side - so a rotary knob and 4 macro keys, instead of 5 macro keys. Any chance of something like this in the future?

Interested in the layout and the cool bottom design!  :thumb: Does the cork act as good insulation between the board and table like a deskmat?

Would love this exact thing but with a 65% layout and a macro column. Could even keep that awesome badge above the arrow keys kinda like the Think65.

The cork worries me that it will wear down or degrade over time, but I love the idea. It'll have a different sound and more desk contact.
