Title: Hey Guys
Post by: bigal on Fri, 12 June 2015, 04:00:02

I have recently fallen down the mechanical keyboard rabbit hole. After waiting far too long for the Das Keyboard 4 to be restocked in the UK, I ended up going for the Filco Majestouch Ninja 2 (Cherry Blue with a red Escape key).

I have been using MS Natural keyboards for almost 20 years, so it's a bit of an adjustment.

If MS made that keyboard shape with cherry blues, I would be all over it.

I use Macs home. Feeling disappointed that DAS don't seem to do a Mac UK layout (also what's with the Greetech keys?)

Cheers
Allan

Welcome to Geekhack!

I was going to link the Ergo 4000 build thread, but infiniti beat me to it :))

If you have sufficient determination, there's not much you can't do with a keyboard.
