Focus 2001 board with real White Alps in decent condition.
« on: Sun, 04 January 2015, 19:23:39 »
I'm not totally sure what the consensus is on Focus keyboards, but this one looks to be pretty decent. Real white complicated Alps and doubleshot keycaps. Auction is almost over though, I am a bit late in posting this.

Those can be excellent, or not.

If I was flush, I would buy it for the caps.
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

I've been meaning to try some kind of proper Alps for a while... my bidding finger is feeling awfully itchy right now...

A new keyboard to type with or food to eat tonight? Hmm...

Disclaimer: The above is a joke. I'm not actually THAT reckless.

Edit:  I lied. I am that reckless. Hopefully it doesn't end up sucking. At the very least I could use the keycaps for my Chicony 5181 with the SMK blues. The caps that came with that are amazingly bad.
