Title: My new Filco, I'm loven it!!
Post by: Conamin on Fri, 03 June 2011, 18:09:43
After a lot of research both here, and a couple of other sites. I found myself drawn to this keyboard. I picked the tenkeyless, Filco Majestouch with cherry browns. I am loving the tactile bump, and I come home wanting to type. (Very foreign concept for me).

Added some pics.

Through the knowledge you all provide; I was able to make my transition to mechanical keyboards seamlessly. You guys rock!

It is wise to choose Filco for your first keyboard. You will not be very excited to buy other keyboards.

Maybe another Filco with different switches, of course. Haha

So what kind of switch is that? Is that like some ALPS variant?

That's nothing, you should see what OCN can cook up.

@bonecandy you should edit your post, the spam's gone now.
