« on: Mon, 05 January 2009, 03:37:39 »
Yeah so I thought I was getting the anykey programable model and I didnt.

So what do you think? Worth a clean up or straight in the bin :) its a harsh world.

I think it's worth a cleanup. Those are some of the better rubber dome boards imo. Could you also edify my curiosity by checking if the keycaps fit on Cherry MX? I know Cherry MY keycaps work on MX boards, I have about half the keycaps on my MX11800 from a semi-dead black MY8000 board.

you can always keep it as a spare keyboard, believe me you can never have enough of those.

Not if you have a couple durable boards in the first place. ;)

Hey. They do fit MX switches yeah. Also it feels like there might be springs in the switches which is interesting.
Will try and get a better look :)
