Hello everyone!
Relatively new to the mechanical keyboard scene. Name is Royce and I have using a PFU HHKB Pro 2 for probably close to 2 months as a daily driver at work and at home. Best investment I have ever made.
I'm just keeping my eyes peeled in this forum for that PBT Topre Space Bar!

welcome to GH!
Very nice first? board to get! looks like you'll be saving money since you bought an endgame board first! unless we get that aluminum HHKB case in the talks.

Hahah I know! In all honestly, my heart was set on getting Cherry MX Clears on paper. I tested the other more commonly available switches at Microcenter, Best Buy, and Frys and i was inbetween liking Browns and Greens. I found out about Elitekeyboards and they had test boards for Cherry MX Clears. So I dropped by their store front and I immediately like the Cherry MX Clears but they felt a tad heavy but really nice tactile feedback. Out of whim I decided why not test out the Topre boards since they were side by side and my mind was blown. I ended up pseudo typing on a Realforce and a HHKB for about 5 minutes and I knew exactly what my switch should be. So I just decided to save a little bit more and get what really felt perfect. LOL
An aluminum HHKB?! I am extremely intrigued!
