hi,
I want to say I m so happy to have found this place,
I m a International student , and just arrived in UK several month ago..
now I want to have a specified keyboard form Cherry.
It is G80-3000LPCXY-2 (linear mx switch & blank keys).

I can not find it in any online shop, and I have contacted the rep in UK, but they said that if I wanted to have it ,I had to order at least 20 pieces....

So, can anybody tell me where I can find  the retail or give me  some suggestions?




Plz forgive my bad English~~I hope you guys can understand what I have said~~~ha

Try here (http://www.barcodegiant.com/cherry/part-g81-3000lunus-2.htm?y).  I haven't ordered from them, but I found them when I was searching for stuff.

You may want to use a spell checker....: ) as you may have inadvertently insulted a few of the members here : ) just saying...

Except a spellchecker wouldn't have caught that one. A grammar checker wouldn't have even caught that.

I didn't even notice he made that mistake when I read over it. :)

Hi nick.wl!

Can't you help you with your question, but you do know that the black linear Cherry MX switch does not give you any kind of tactile or audible feedback? Personally I consider black Cherrys way better than any rubber dome keyboard, but most people here (me included) aren't too impressed with black MX. Clicky blue Cherry MX is generally much preferred.

I can understand you quite good.  Don't know about the gays though... ;)
