Nice! Welcome to mechanical keyboard ownership

I assume you are aware that the modifiers and spacebar of the Ducky keycap set won't fit the Pure Pro. Are you going to use them mainly for the alpha keys (purple surrounded by black) or will you replace the numbers, too? Should look good either way

JaccoW · « **Reply #4055 on:** Mon, 28 April 2014, 08:39:43 »

Just bought a fairly cheap Raptor K1 Gaming in ISO layout.
Looking forward to putting my SkiData set on something a bit more usable.

Thanks bud! Yea I'm aware they were a bargain so I'm going to be just using the alpha keys, have not decided on the numbers yet will have to have a few tests may even do some weird chequerboard thing.

A free Crumpler laptop bag... too bad I use backpacks only.

...and yet another CM Storm Xornet. There are like four of them at my place, although I use trackballs or Roccat mice most of the time.

Like I said, MX brown. I've only actually tested reds so far, but from weighing the descriptions of the various types, I concluded that tactile but quieter than blues would be good for my home use.

And yes, it's the full keyboard - force of habit. I did notice people around here tend to prefer tenkeyless or smaller.

Maybe tenkeyless for the next one...

And I completely spaced on the description... sorry! I went with MX Browns for my first mechanical keyboard, I think you'll enjoy it. Ducky makes lovely keyboards, too. Solid, stable, and with the Shine line there are all sorts of lighting effects.

I believe they recently announced that they weren't sending out orders for a day or two because of the storms. They sent home the workers because of safety issues. If your order was shipped out before that though, not sure how international orders are handled. Domestic-wise, they're pretty awesome about it.

My Macross set from SP finally cleared customs! Took them 19 bloody days.

(Customs, mind you, not SP)
Also got a Raptor K1 Gaming on the way. I have a little project in mind.

Also some G81-8000 WoB Doubleshots.

Yeah, everything I have ever ordered from them has gotten to me within 2 to 4 days.

Ok ok... I'm probably too used to something else like cherry browns on a WASD v1 and buckling spring with floss mod... but if I start liking the RF enough in a week or so I think I'll be selling the wasd. In that case it will just be the RF and an IBM model M (two completely different beasts).
