Title: Long time lurker first time poster
Post by: Irontree on Sat, 24 October 2015, 14:58:30

I just wanted to stop in and say hello.  My current daily driver is a HHKB Pro at work along with a Dell 101.

HHKB is love, HHKB is life.  I've been debating trying to get a second for work.

HHKB >> Alps = Model F BS >>> MX >> Scissor Switch > Model M BS > Mebrane = Rubber Dome

Welcome to Geekhack!

A nice contrast in keyboards, both size and switch.

Do you have a particular preference for either one?

I'm all for opinions, but that's just crazy talk, nubs.  :))

What can I say, I feel like Model Ms really suck since they flex and feel mushy sometimes while a quality scissor switch can actually be pleasant to use (like my IBM T500 keyboard).

Thanks for the welcomes.  THE HHKB is the first gen pro that I found on ebay.  It take some to get used to the layout.  I also have a mid 80'S Model M SSK that I bolt modded. It barely gets used though.

HHKB and SSK - two of my favourite keyboards :D
