[AUS] PCCG - Ducky Mini YOTH

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I think that it looks kind of ugly with its curved bezels.
Almost the exact shape of my Galaxy S4 which I think is kind of ugly.

Although I did hear somewhere that these come with a ballin keychain?
If anyone can confirm this I will buy that thing off someone who gets this.

200aud for a 60%  cnc case keyboard is a pretty good deal.

Although I don't think that either the PCB or the case will be compatible with normal 60% boards.
Correct me if I am wrong.

Why would it need to?  The bang for buck is lost if you are just harvesting it for parts.

I personally don't like the case design however and I would love to put that PCB in a different case.
Not a product for me. Maybe others are in love with the case, but I find it egregious.

That's the prototype before anodizing.

The case is plastic with aluminium layers above and below.  It would be better value if it was all aluminium :p

Or it this one actually all aluminium??
