Photoelectric's LZ-GH

Mod edit: This board is not eligible for nomination because of winning previously in it's current state. You may still bask in it's glory however :D

People in the 1980s, in general, were clearly just better than we are now in every measurable way.

The dumber the reason the more it must be done

He actually won keyboard of the month in February last year, so I am leaning towards not allowing it as a nomination again... I know in the rules I've said it can be nominated multiple times but seeing as it won I don't know if I should let it go up for it again.

I didn't realize Photoelectric had already won, do whatever you feel is right given the rules.

I saw his post on instagram and totally agree. Very subtle but really nice.

I generally hate all keycaps. Keycaps are for poofs. Real men touchtype on stems. Non-functional artisans are awesome, I use them for the ESC key ... escape is for cowards anyways, real men go frontal assault.

  • Missed another sale.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
