Title: Hello from the Philippines!
Post by: mvalviar on Wed, 05 March 2014, 09:14:21

I've been lurking for a couple of years now.

I got reintroduced to mechanical keyboards back in 2012. Back in college I'm aware of the distinct difference between the computers in our lab and the computers in cafes. Our lab carries 286/486s and of course IBM model Ms. Years later I was browsing /r/programming when a daskeyboard ad caught my attention. Which lead me to Dan Data's article on model m's which lead me to /r/mechnicalkeyboards. Which lead me to GH. I've been switching switches since then. Started with a Filco MJ2 with blues, then a unicomp, then an hhkb.

Bucking spring is gives me the most enjoyable and comfortable typing experience thus far.
