Switched from ibm model m to realforce 104u.

Definitely a polarizing typing experience between the two.

I get that, but even more so, switching between Model M and HHKB!

justnits · « **Reply #551 on:** Tue, 12 November 2013, 01:43:58 »

was swapping between ducky shine 2 mx blue, keycool 87 mx blue and ikbc f104 mx brown.
since i've sold off my keycool 87, right now i'm only using ikbc f104 as my ducky is under my current modding project

i miss them clicky

LOL, I think one 200+ dollar keyboard is enough for me, have all the switches I care to have. (MX blues, buckling springs and topre)

Currently I'm using your keyboard's better cousin: the FC660C (topres).

Do you like the FC660M's layout? I like it a lot. It only took me a couple of days to learn the arrow keys / escape location, and now everything feels natural.

kohi · « **Reply #555 on:** Tue, 12 November 2013, 22:40:02 »

dat top-RAH tho haha
yeah, the reason why I bought this keyboard was because of the layout~
which is funny cause a lot of people think it's weird/don't like it but I love it
currently holding off on the topre, gonna thoroughly enjoy mx switches first

I'm currently using a Filco MJ2 (browns) at home. Just put some PBT side printed caps and PBT RGB (poker) modifiers on. At work I am using a Filco MJ2 TKL (blacks) but it's just a stop gap until my HHKB arrives.

I actually really like the layout there, it reminds me of the QF TK a lot. Now if only they'd trim the ridiculous bezel..

So very jelly of that HHKB.

55g Topre is my favorite Thorpe and I'd love to try case mounted 55g but don't want to take out of my RF55 87UB... may need to find another in the future to take apart to mod a HHKB.

Currently using costar built Das III with a mix of lubed ergo clears, getto greens, a stock clear, stock browns and lubed browns. Caps are thin dye subbed PBT alpha numerics, and the stock blank black caps.

Rubber dome HP laptop board. Definitely not my favorite.

Internetlad · « **Reply #589 on:** Wed, 20 November 2013, 12:42:14 »

Rosewill RK-9000BL (MX Blacks) at work. PBT Hazards for the F row and a grey on white doubleshot escape I got from a grab bag from SP, but crappy stock keys other than that on it.

Hoping to pick up a new 'board for work and take this one back home. I couldn't stand using the provided 'board (inherited and beat to **** microsoft ergo split thing) so I just brought mine in. Got a Unicomp M on my Linux machine (which sees little use, unforutnately) and a Kensington dome board on my main gaming pc.

Basically, mech on a budget.

JaccoW · « **Reply #591 on:** Wed, 20 November 2013, 15:14:29 »

I've been using my Déck Legend with MX clears and o-rings the last few weeks again.
My preferences have changed to smaller boards but this thing is still a dream to type on and feels so much nicer and more solid than my other Clear board.
I'll have it lubed and stickered soon.

For something a little different from all the shrunken, mostly keyless boards that seem very popular with this crowd, I'm typing on my own personal favorite, a Northgate Omnikey Ultra in its ultimate maxi-key format, coupled with a RollerMouse Pro. I have this combo at home and at my office (which is 1300 miles from home, but that's another story).

iri · « **Reply #594 on:** Mon, 25 November 2013, 05:01:40 »

Does this Omnikey have white alps?

Flamingchook · « **Reply #595 on:** Mon, 25 November 2013, 05:33:52 »

Back on my Filco ever since my Dolch set arrived. Put some foam behind the pcb to deaden the sound a bit and it's wonderful.

randomist · « **Reply #596 on:** Mon, 25 November 2013, 05:55:47 »

Right now? HP POS chicklet laptop board on an ultra portable 11" lappy.

Home use: Filco MJ2 MX-Browns
ITX rig: temporarily an M$ Sidewinder X4
Work: Dell POS (about to be replaced by a Filco MJ2 TKL MX Browns with o-rings which will also travel occasionally for the ITX rig).
Lab: M$ "ergonomic" wave keyboard, second most uncomfortable thing I can think of that I've typed on. No way a mech keyboard is going in there, too many nasty things could happen to it.
Sofa: Logitech wireless rubberdome thingy.

Yes -- I've had 5 or 6 of them going back more than 20 years, and I've never seen a Northgate with anything except white alps. (I think the same was true of the Avant Stellar -- I had one of those, but even though it looked like a Northgate, it didn't type like one. Didn't have the staying power either.)

Internetlad · « **Reply #599 on:** Mon, 25 November 2013, 15:26:33 »

If only the Northgate were ANSI. Can't stand BAE.
