I'd love that actually because I've got multiple Amstrads :p .

As for the Acer, that'd be more like:

OK perhaps I am being somewhat hyperbolic here :)), buut I think I might be in the camp that thinks that they are a biiiiit overhyped.  I admit a part of it is due to the lackluster experience I've had with my SKCM Blue board.

blues do seem a bit overhyped, but neither of us have tried NOS ones :))

That's true, but my SKCM Blues feel just fine to me, it's the sound that I'm not sure I care for.  It's pretty refined sure, but kinda anemic compared to buckling springs, IMO.

Post by: klennkellon on Wed, 31 August 2016, 00:02:49

Anything sounds anemic compared to buckling springs. I personally prefer the more controlled sounding Alps in general.

Title: Re: Your keyboards theme song
Post by: emdude on Wed, 31 August 2016, 00:08:41

Eh, at this point, I think I'm more of a tactile Alps guy anyway.
