New Deck Keyboard, Vortex F104 Keycaps? Thoughts?
« on: Tue, 17 November 2015, 02:05:14 »
Hey GH Peeps, i thought id throw in my two cents on my new kb i'll be receiving in a a few days, and was asking on thoughts.

This is more of a vouch to the aussies over at MechKB, and more specifically, Alex in the Customer Support section, who was an absolute dream to work with.

I was looking at their 95$ budget offering, the Deck Francium Non-Backlit which appealed to me from its minimalistic design and no-frills scheme, however sadly the Australian Decks threw the doubleshot PBTs out the window, as well as that god-awful lovechild of Comic Sans and Papyrus, for a large Helvetica.

Of course i preferred the Helvetica, but i seriously wanted those D-S PBTs man!... Well

In comes Alex.

He notified me that MechKB had a Vortex iKBC F104, another great budget KB, laying around collceting dust, and he could simply replace the ABS keys on the Deck for the Doubleshot Keys on the Vortex.

My order took about an hour longer to get sent out, but pretty much nothing compared to what Alex did for me. Cheers man! (No extra cost too o-o)

The Vortex iKBC F104 ---> http://www.mechkb.com/vortex-ikbc-f-104-double-shot-pbt-mechanical-keyboard

Any thoughts on my decision with the Deck? Ive heard good things about it. Cant wait for it to arrive! Ill update with pics.

Cheers.
