What's the greatest keyset ever produced in terms of terms of S&D?

[HoffmanMyster]

If you look strictly at current demand (largely fueld by reddit users, since there are so many of them and they don't necessarily know the older sets), Pulse is probably way up there, along with Penumbra and others listed.

However, I think it's also interesting to look at the potential demand (though purely speculative), and for that I'd have to go with some OG Cherry Dyesub sets.  I think that if more people would have a chance to try these sets, they'd see how great they are and the demand would follow.  Again, speculation.    This is the most I've ever spent on a set of keycaps, and I know many others who would spend similar amounts.

I've oft wondered what is so great about Cherry dyesubs as I've never felt them. Is it the texture? thickness?

Texture, thickness, material quality, dyesub quality (crispness of legends).  Basically everything about them.  :)

until you see olivetti in person..

Who made the Olivetti keycaps?

Cherry..but the color are so different than classic beige. 
But yeah, all cherry caps are damn good

So you were agreeing with me.  :P

For me, it's probably the OG Red Alert set by sixty.  I remember it was so hard to get the complete set back then (not enough supply).

OG is borrowed street slang for the Original Gangsters, the people who started the gang. In this context it's referring to original Cherry keyboards, not reproductions after the fact. So OG Dolch refers to the caps from a Dolch PAC keyboard, as opposed to the GMK replicas (even though GMK is still using the original equipment).

I was wondering what is OG also. Thank you for the clear and simple explanation, with an example included; then, it means I am typing in an OG Beige set now, it even has the delicious row 5 modifiers. Wow!

To many people, OG is just about status, but there are those who believe OG Cherry caps are physically superior to modern GMK, perhaps due to tooling wear or some other reason.

I have also read some remarks related with that. Fact is that recent runs of GMK made key caps have shown some minor manufacturing defects. In any case molds can keep working well, with the proper replacement of worn off components.

OG Red Alert would be Red Alert R1.  Like nj said, OG is for Original Gangster, but it's often used as slang for just original or the first.

No, in that context it's referring to the original SP RA group buy run by Sixty and Uranium, not some set from an original Cherry keyboard.
