Title: Hello from Saskatoon
Post by: cryptowillem on Tue, 24 March 2015, 11:02:51

Hello! Just wanted to introduce myself!

I'm sitting in Saskatoon with a Quickfire Rapid TK with MX Blues and I've got a Code TKL with Greens on the way. I look forward to being part of the community!

Welcome to Geekhack!

Blues and greens - it will be interesting to see which one you prefer.  I really liked blues, but then tried blacks and subsequently found blues too light, so I tried greens and loved them!

Let us know what you think of the greens :)

I've been lurking for too long - but I'm also from Saskatoon.

My keyboard of the last 9 years recently broke which led me to pickup a Razer TKL from OTV with their own flavour of blues...  In the past few weeks I've also picked up a CM QFR with browns, a RealForce 87U with Topre's and a Ducky Mini with reds.  I think I'm liking reds the best, but am not getting used to the 60%.

I'm guessing you're the one selling the DSA blanks on eBay then. Haha! That's coincidence!

Yes, that would be me. 

Wanted to try them, but honestly didn't like them.  Not sure if its the texture, the profile or what...

Cheers! Though, truth be told, there is also this Saskatoon:

Yep, I come from a city named after a berry.

I guess those original explorers must have been getting a bit stuck for names ;)

Here's a nice place for a city, what shall we call it?  I dunno, there's lots of these berry bushes around, let's call it after those :p
