Hello online pals,
Long time lurker, first time poster over here, as you can see.
I've been a mech fan since my first IT job in the early 2000s, when my boss gave me what I now know was a Model M. He explained why mechanical keyswitches were important, and in the manner of the young professional I was, I said "whatever, old man" and proceeded to stash it somewhere because I didn't have a DIN to PS/2 adapter at home. It was a different time.
It is probably somewhere in storage at Mum's place, among the young adult novels and broken guitars.
Several millenia later, after I had tossed in the IT towel, I devolved into a literature student and ironically I found myself typing a heck of a lot more. I invested in a WASD v2 and did a custom design (as seen below) that I quite liked. I still type on this today, but many spilled beers and wines have made the Cherry Blues a little uncomfortable to use, so I find myself looking for something new and expensive and shiny - I'd love to try Topre one day, but I'm still not quite sure about making the jump. I'd also really like to try the SA profile, so I may stick with MX for now. Graagh! So many options, so few dollars.
Anyhow, here's some photos of my WASD, and I look forward to engaging discussions and empty wallets!
