Title: Long time lurker, first time poster
Post by: clicketyclack on Tue, 24 July 2012, 15:11:07

Hey,

I guess I've been lurking for a little while, and I've finally been able to get off my butt and post.

I'm a mail sorter on graveyard shift here in Canberra, Australia. While I haven't got a mechanical keyboard at the moment (confined to a laptop for now, but will be getting a desktop once I start university (which is in a few weeks).

I'm probably going to start with Cherry switches, then go looking for a BS or ALPS board when I'm a bit more experienced.

Thank you

Welcome from a fellow Australian lurker.

Any Australian GHer. Great. Welcome. So you are looking into cherrys first?
Funny thing is, I have BS and ALPS boards but no cherrys! apart from a MY.
What particular cherry switch were you looking for?

Thank you guys and girls!

I would probably get some sort of board with MX Browns - I've got flatmates, and I don't wanna wake them up with clicky Blues.

Girls?

Wow, what a concept!

Hey, with that misogynist Ripster out of the way, maybe we can get some estrogen into this man-cave once again.

Women - WE LOVE YOU! - Come on over!

We sincerely want to hear your opinions concerning keyboards and other things!

(I was going to say "hardware" but realized that the oafs and louts that populate this bog would make a sophomoric joke with it)
