Title: possibly looking for alternatives to Ducky Shine DK9008S
Post by: dimm0k on Mon, 22 October 2012, 16:51:31

My favorite keyboard finally bit the dust when I spilled a cup of water onto it so now I'm looking into my first mechanical keyboard.  I've pretty much narrowed down my choices to the Ducky Shine DK9008S (yellow/red combo LED, brown Cherry MX), but unfortunately this keyboard is nowhere to be found here in the US.  Now I'm wondering are there better alternatives to this keyboard with the same features?  Or perhaps another place that I can get this keyboard from?

If you don't mind TKL, there is a GB for similar Ducky YoTD (MX browns and yellow LEDs): http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=36090.0

actually that's the thread that lead me here!  originally that was the keyboard I was looking at, but then I realized I would rather have the numpad...
