Title: Just a video of my white Filco Majestouch w/blues
Post by: Waterdr1nker on Tue, 25 October 2011, 14:06:23: I didn't see many white Filcos on YouTube, so I decided to make one just in case anyone is interested. I wasn't doing any speed tests or anything—it's just me derpin around on the internet. Hope you all enjoy!

I bought a black Filco a couple months ago from a member here named Placebo Guy. He was nice enough to include a spacebar and some extra key caps.

i cannot hear the ping

No, but in all honesty, there is a little ping, but it's so quiet. I am trying to point out the ping in the video, and I can't seem to hear it. Maybe I'm just accustomed to it now.

I completely agree. I owned a Leopold before, and while it was a great keyboard, I couldn't help but go back to my Filco.

Yep! You can listen here (http://soundcloud.com/bflatinum). It's loosely based of UK garage, house, and dubstep (no Srillex).

Post by: Playtrumpet on Tue, 25 October 2011, 21:18:45: I'm addicted to the sound of blues. My one regret in getting Browns (though I still love them). Musician too? I'm familiar with those. ^_^

Post by: c0rbin on Tue, 25 October 2011, 22:34:25: I think non keyboard enthusiast people view these videos kind of in the same way that we view those Youtube fetish videos of guys getting off by pumping up their stomachs and then walking around with a bunch of air in their stomach.

I mean, imagine what a Geekhack meet and greet would be like. It would be awful.

I mean more from the perspective of the subject that brings us together, i.e. keyboards aren't quite as exciting of a subject as say, nice cars.

But I stand by my statement about typing videos being viewed as totally weird by people. People see typing videos and they think "its just somebody typing on a keyboard, WTF?"

Personally I think that the winner of weirdest videos on the internet are unboxing videos.... jesus. I watch them, but when I think about the concept it's just plain weird.

Lot of money in being a Vlogger. This is why I take the high moral ground and don't accept free review samples.

Another totally senseless post by our narcissistic mass-poster....

No insult to OP intended.

None taken. I was just helping out some friends with their channel.
