Title: Hi from Missouri
Post by: zewcq on Tue, 26 April 2016, 00:20:08
Hi, I just registered for geekhack after browsing some of the forums here, specifically the interest checks

I'm a college student and I just bought my first mechanical keyboard - Deck Francium, and so far I'm enjoying it very much.
I'm waiting for this to become my new addiction while at college, and hoping to buy some nice key sets in the future.

Thanks for having me and I'm hoping to have fun customizing my keyboard soon.

Welcome to the group! I'm sure you'll have fun here. It can be a bit of a money pit though.

Welcome to Geekhack!

What switches did you get in your Deck?

This can become a very addictive and expensive hobby, especially when you find out about artisan keycaps.  Best to set yourself a budget and stick to it, especially if you are at college!

Sorry for the late reply guys! Yeah I'm using cherry mx browns, they feel awesome.

Yay midwesterners! I grew up in St Louis :) Welcome!

That's awesome man! Yeah St. Louis is where I'm currently living and I've had a great time getting accustomed here.

Thank you man! I got brown switches for my Deck and they're great. Thanks for the advice; I really do need to set a budget for this. I realize this can definitely cost a lot of money, but good thing I'm also working while at college right?  :confused:

Just read that entire post; makes me want to reevaluate all of my spending habits not just keyboards. Thanks for showing that to me :thumb:

Seems there's a few other Kansas/Missouri residents in the group besides me. I'm pleased with this.

Greetings from Grandview, and welcome to Geekhack!
