yeah, that's totally possible. changing up the ingredient sourcing and composition without affecting the nutrition facts or ingredients list.

Q: Any idea how to change a keyboards Menu/App key to the FN key? New board came with this by default instead of an FN button and I'm not familiar with how to change it with VIA for example.

This is from a concept album characterizing the epic struggle of a small crew whose fishing boat struck shore on a deserted island.

I remember reading a long time ago(2016/17) that they changed the chocolate for reese's cups to a cheaper, more waxy one.
But I agree the filling tastes significantly worse now as well. Cloyingly sweet, and too crumbly/dry.
Waxy! That's a more fitting description than oily. Also, yes, they seem drier now. Also, Hershey's milk choco bars are almost elastic now. Not sure if they'd always been that way, but when they're warm you can actually stretch the bars if you handle it just right. Probably all the gums and wax they shove in there nowadays.

That backspace button is way too small. So, it could be the best keyboard in the world, but that alone kills it for me.

PS Why do I need to answer 6 questions for every comment I post?! Also, why are there no mods/admins to OK my topic?

this is just an example of R4, like some specific japanese version. There are standard ANSI ones.
Thank you for the clarification. I think your opening post could just have included that information; e.g. there is a series (you mentioned this word, so that part was clear) of keyboards with different layouts and for example color schemes.

In that case, the only way I would buy such a product, is if they would connect one to my computer for free for evaluation for three months of using it (which translates to probably a year or actual time, which they are never going to accept) to figure out whether or not there is added value. I don't think having a more expensive keyboard would provide much value to me. At the very least being able to physically test it in some store or seeing advanced metrics would be required. 

In a sense, you could say that their marketing engine doesn't work good enough for full market saturation. 

From all the keyboards on the planet, why would you want this one? I think, if I knew why I would want to have that particular keyboard, I would probably have enough knowledge to build my own custom one. In a way not being happy with a keyboard is kind of a curse, no? I mean, at some point a hobby becomes OCD for perfection or an addiction. I know why I bought the mechanical keyboard I currently have (ergonomics for having a mouse in place of the numpad and lower activation force to reduce stress on my wrists), but I have no idea why I should buy a Realforce R4.

What did I answer...

Right, so you are new to mech keebs, I see...  :rolleyes:
I have only been using one for 15 years and did extensive research at the time, which is why I was happy with my purchase for at least 10 years of that. I think you have no idea who you are dealing with here.

All you are showing is that _you_ are new or too lazy to answer (which is understandable, since I am not paying you as my personal consultant, but don't do around saying things you don't know).

Hey kid, are you high or something?

Not as high as you.
