Title: Greetings!
Post by: ADFX_Pixy on Fri, 26 September 2014, 22:50:27
Hello Geekhack community! I thought that since I received my first (and probably only) mechanical keyboard a day ago I thought it would be appropriate for me to join this (hopefully welcoming) community. My beauty of a mechanical keyboard is a Ducky Shine 3 with White LED's and Blue Cherry MX switches. I used to use the stock wireless TKL Apple Keyboard that came with my iMac (late 2011) and I thought the chiclet keys were amazing until I felt my friend's Ducky Shine 3. As soon as I saw them in stock on mechanicalkeyboards.com I quickly ordered one. Some other things about me is that I play tennis a lot and I follow eSports (Call of Duty, even though it's the least popular).

Welcome to GH! :cool:

I used the chiclets on my MacBook for about five years and bottoming always made my fingers hurt.  I ended up pairing it with a QFR until I returned the MacBook to my employer.

Anyway, congrats on the Shine 3!  Don't forget to post it in the Post your Duckies! thread (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=44203.0)

Welcome to GH! Duckies are well loved in clicky circles. I totally approve of white LEDs (especially because you can get the color-changer LED slips if you wanna mix it up!) Hope to see you around Infiniti!  :thumb:

Mabuhay! :thumb:

It's sunny, hot, and humid 90% of the time...the other 10% of the time is the rainy season.  I still haven't found a great cache of vintage keyboards...maybe I'm not trying hard enough. :))

Welcome to Geekhack!

I also went from Apple keyboard to Ducky Shine - and I haven't looked back since.

I just hope you don't play tennis with your keyboard :p
