Hello from Sweden!
« on: Mon, 10 February 2020, 14:45:01 »
Hello everyone!
Found this forum when reasearching my first non "gaming" mech (had a corsair strafe before), the drop alt, on r/mk where I have been hanging out for a while. So i made an account here and now I guess I'll have to get a nice keycap set as well and KAT lucky jade do be lookin' nice.

My alt is the HP version which is going to get lubed Everglide crystals and some new stabs. Exited to be here and join you down in the rabbit hole!

Welcome to geekhack, Jippadox. Those are definitely some nice caps. I have too much money to spend on vintage keyboards with dead protocols and switch types to worry about such things though, myself. A satisfaction 75 would be nice though.

How are you liking the alt? I imagine that must be the smallest possible keyboard you can get and still reasonably navigate/highlight in spreadsheets with hotkeys, and whatever other arrow key-heavy tasks.

I do mostly writing and some gaming, so the arrow keys are nice, but I would not need anything larger with more keys. But the board in all is actually pretty nice, the default stabs were garbage, but that is easily fixed, so now it's pretty great. But it's the best I've had, so I'm happy with it.

I don't have any boutique boards yet myself, but that one would be a contender. I suppose a new production Model F might count, whenever hell freezes over and mine ships.
