Hi everyone!
I recently purchased the Tactile Click NKRO (104-key US ANSI layout) which was an upgrade from the Lycosa, and it was almost all due to Manyak's mechanical keyboard guide over there.
I saw this message board recommended a bunch of times over there on OCN, and so I figured that I should register now that I am the very blissful owner of this new keyboard! So, hi. :) I am really looking forward to participating in the community!

Thank you!
My avatar was actually made by a guy over on OCN who didn't like my original. I mean, he seriously started talking to me about it one day and the next thing I knew I had a new avatar which I liked much better.
Here's the original:

And actually, these are the actual cables that caused me to come up with my name. They're sticking out of the cable management hole on my desk, so when I was trying to think of a new name and looking around my room, my eyes eventually fell on those cables and I just kinda said, "Hey look: two cables. Why, that's perfect! TwoCables it is."
They're just these Rocketfish Stereo Audio Cables:

So of course, you can even see my original avatar sitting there!

lol I press Esc every single time I see his avatar just because it's so distracting. :D But it really sucks when a page takes a really long time to load and I have to sit there with his avatar animating all over the place. hehe
j/k though, Manyak!
