Title: Goodbye RED
Post by: zaerst on Sat, 09 April 2011, 15:19:41

Hello Brown! I've decided to retire my Filco tenkeyless red. I've tried and tried to love you but I just can't. So for now she goes to sleep in her box, maybe someday to awaken once again.

Awww, it's nice to have you back Filco brown. You're not as easy as your cousin red, and you touch me back to let me know youre there.

zaerst those white pbt's look really nice on your filco, you dont have an extra set you wanna sell do you?  I only ask because if I am going to wait for imsto to ship another batch I might aswell just wait for my round 3 ds's

Sorry nope. I think a lot of people didnt buy the white set when they first came up because they thought it wasnt unique and or wouldnt look good. But they sure do look nice on a black filco imo.

They are from Imsto's MO thread, the keys.

 I got the red about a month or two ago, used it since then. Although to be fair I havent been on my desktop much. I use a unicomp spacesaver daily all day for work, and going to the red is just soo light. I find myself hitting keys by accident etc. One thing I will say though, is that I mostly game on that pc and it is great for that.
