file under: Horrible Finds (I think?)

so, this keyboard ... it's just a home-built TKL / WKL with scavanged ALPs, right?

Someone tell me there's no possible reason why any human being would drop a grand onto a keyboard when they could pay a professional to build a second one in the world for half what the first one is going for.

Weird.

I know that green Alps are prized by some, but that LED near the arrow keys (Caps Lock, right?) is really ugly and insensitive.

So if "NumLock" is "Windows" then why not find a Windows logo. At that price, anyway. When selling cheap you can slap anything on there.

“This isn’t the same Trump that got elected in 2016, he’s worse.”
“Something snapped in this guy — for real — when he lost in 2020,” Biden said, suggesting the former president was “unhinged” and was the driving force behind a mob of his supporters overrunning the US Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021."
“He can’t accept the fact that he lost, it’s literally driving him crazy,” Biden said.
He added that the former president “wants to terminate the Constitution” and “says if he loses there will be a bloodbath in America.”
“What kind of man is this?”  Biden asked. — June 3, 2024

I hear the sound of a certain stringed instrument in the background. Oh man, do I hear a violin?
Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

Looks nice, but why so much for ALPS ?

Lol....price is way too high. It should be priced more around the $500 mark.
