So I have an amazing idea for a keyboard which I'm 99% sure everyone would want it's going to cost the consumer 100-160 I only expect to make about $30-40 from each keyboard I sell but it's going to be good materials and obviously have a knob as well as a bunch of other features anyone know if it's possible??? I'm guessing I'll have to have them made in china but I want it to be flawless before it gets into the hands of any consumer no sticky keys no bad stabilizers just flawless perfection! So that keyboard junkies don't have to sit there and remod the keyboard to get it working right and ppl with no modding experience can just slap some keys and switches on and enjoy! No Chinese software that takes 2 hours to translate! Most likely going to be compatible with signalrgb and any other software ! I'll also sell add-ons like different plate covers and knobs to switch out but I won't charge a premium for the add-ons like other companies! Do I expect to get rich? No as long as I make a good amount of money to not need a second job then I'm fine this keyboard will be for the people not the usual money grab that most companies make! Any suggestions? Concern's? Etc let me know !

Short answer, no.
Long answer, no way.
Is it possible? Sort of... Is it a good business, absolutely not. Will it let you quit your job? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, no.

Probably another bot? If not, what value does a knob add?

Yeah you actually need to have the keyboard in hand to see if 99% of people who look at them want it lol.
