Screw Cherry; where are my Gaterons?
Ordered the switch tester on Massdrop with the Gateron on it. I'll see what they are worth.

Oh ****, can someone link me that? I didn't realize they had Gateron switch testers.

It's already over but here is the link

totally dissapointed by the announcement. Although, with the selection of switches available, why would there need to be a new one introduced. The market is expanding, but I feel it wouldn't have made much economic sense. Jumping into the gamer market right now makes sense.

Keyboard appears nice, though.

Well, I like it...

The difference in speed is probably so small as to be imperceptible, but being imperceptibly faster is better than not being faster at all.

No, it's not anything revolutionary, but at least it's not more useless decoration like fancy lighting or key caps.

Yes and the real innovation revealed in the clip is this deep, assertive male voice:
 

Inspiration for thousands of young virgin gamerz.

I didn't see any of the lead up hype, so I guess I'm not extra disappointed like most people on this thread seem to be.. keyboard looked nice from the video Luke did for Linus

I would buy if TKL.  I like the wrist rest.  It reminds me of the SS7G I used to have.

I didn't see this one posted. 

The Cherry guy calls it a "Professional Performance Keyboard" at one point.  I had to chuckle at that.

Yeah, that is how most backlit keycaps are made. Cast in translucent plastic, painted on top and then the legends are burned off with laser to reveal the plastic beneath.
