Hey guys!
« on: Sat, 01 August 2015, 04:15:04 »
Been lurking for a while, as well as using this site to help with keyboard purchases for myself and a relative who lives with me. We've each been through two different keyboards (I gave her my first, it broke, and she's using a different one) and rely on this site a lot for information.

Right now my only keyboard is a 2nd generation RK9000 Rosewill with Cherry MX Browns, which I enjoy very much. I loved he blues, but for some reason they were a little harder on my fingers when my hands got cold. Browns feel much better for both typing and gaming.
T1000 , Firmware ver. Doge.

Most deadly of them all.
Keyboards: Drevo Gramr (Outemu Browns); Logitech K480

Welcome to Geekhack1

Blues and browns should be about the same stiffness.  Have you tried a linear switch, like reds?

Or a heater :p :))
"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

Hey, welcome!
My fingers also get a little stiff in cold weather. Not saying this will be the same for you, but I went to a physiotherapist and it turns out my forearm muscles were really tight for some reason. He gave me some stretches to do though and it's been pretty much better ever since. Might be something to check out.
