Hey guys, just traveled for 2 hrs (back and forth) to pick up my first ALPS ever!
Dell At102, black alps. As I have researched from the internet, this is not the best alps switch ever. But I have had not much experience with mechanical keyboard anyways, So yeah Im still very excited regardless.
Plus, the keyboard is brand new, sit perfectly in a box and has never bene used before. And I had a good deal on it. So yeah, wth, it is a win for me.
The keyboard is absolutely huge, and I love it XD. Typing on it for a bit (this post right here!), I think the feel is alright. The key feels stiff to me, but at the same time is quite responsive. I am not flying all over the keyboard, but at the same time I am not an superb typist anyways.
I would say though, it is definitely enough for me to put a cherry clone blue switch away immediately. God that thing is awful I can't locate the key at all, plus the noise is unbearable. Overall, this keyboard will be my working keyboard for the time being, the key caps are well put together I can locate them all pretty easy. I have seen a few videos about modding the black alps switch, however I am not too sure if I should do it because hunting a reasonable price one like this already hard enough for me. Do not want to mess anything up.
Anyways, just a newbie in this mechanical kb game, experiencing an alps switch for the first time and is super excited to share it. You all have a great day XD
