I received a Filco TKL from Keyboardco today. With MX Brown switches. Now I need one of the group buys to hurry up so I can get some decent keycaps. The standard ones seem to have the legends printed on and the font isn't so nice. Looking for some nice doubleshots in WYSE or the Cherry font.
Was just getting used to typing on my Noppoo Choc Mini and before that the Daskeyboard. This one seems to have a bit better build quality than the Noppoo though.
No pics, but I bet you all know what a Filco looks like
Here is what I did for my Filco:
Step 1: Replace alphas with a set of $18 "Extra Original Cherry Keycaps" white-on-blacks from Signature Plastics.
Near the bottom of the page here:

http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=37225.0That will get you some keycaps you can live with for now (the Cherry Keycaps are quite nice to type on) and will eventually have a really spiffy set of 'caps for your Filco.
Also, welcome to GeekHack!
