Review Time!

Clear- I really did not like the clears. They felt like browns just heavier and the whole point of browns was to get that subtle bump with the linear feel. Not the switch for me.


Surprised that you shrugged off the clears while liking brown.

I was pleasantly surprised by the slightly "meatier" feel and action of the clears, and would choose them over brown (which I had already decided was my next board) if they were available in the board that I wanted.

But I am going to choose the board first and switch second, because I am tired of wimpy boards.

I totally agree with you. I now know that my board is very wimpy with the Razer Blackwidow. Not sure where to find quality boards though. Very inexperienced with mechanical keyboards.

wish i could get this to try before i get my gh60 order in :(

It's my understanding that there will be another round. I'm the last one on the list, and I think Nawit sends it to me next, so the next round may not be too far off.  :cool:

it would be nice to get it regardless. i will hopefully be able to get on the next list. just hope it would get to me before 4/22.

probably not though

So I just now opened up the box finally, and found a couple of unexpected goodies and a laminated switch position legend.  You guys are awesome!

I printed the switch chart for myself and realized that everyone else would want it, too, so I laminated it. The surf CD was from me, too.

Yes, will there be a next round/very rough estimation of time frame please? I probably won't make it in anyway :c

We're still in the middle of this round, so a few more weeks at least.
