Just found out about this place after seeing watduzhkstand4 promoting the forums on a youtube post.

So I just thought I'd say hello,

Oh, and did I mention I love keyboards?

Just be warned that this place will make your wallet far lighter than it currently is. But hey always good to have new keyboard geeks so welcome. Also like wellington1869 stated what are using today?

True. By how much, however, will vary greatly depending on the local used keyboard market and your tastes. It can get into audio dimensions, but may also be significantly easier on the band account.

Thanks for the warnings : )
This computer is shared among my family members, so currently I'm using some Cheapony keyboard. I have a HHKB Lite 2 lying about that I don't use as much because of some rollover problems. Looking for some other alternative though.

I also remember having an old Olivetti keyboard back in the days. Something similar to Model M keyboards I've seen on this forum. That beauty is long gone now : (

Good to be joining this community.

Nice photo on your avatar by the way, that minimalist look on the blank Filco is very tempting.

hahaha thanks. This Filco is my favorite and I don't think I can go back to anything else!
