Thanks for incorporating some of the feedback. I hope the right shift can be moved all the way to the right. Typing with that 1.25u in that location on 12u is quite difficult.

nothing,thats what i do.yes this id42 is a bit difference with the normal 40% layout,and a bit same as the 60% layout,like combining the two into one

Oh Idobao, when will you guys break the mold?! Why do you guys keep starting with an integrated plate version first, then follow it up with another integrated plate with brass weight, then PC/acrylic gasket version, and finally an aluminum gasket version?

You guys repeat this with almost every single keyboard! Just make it a gasket or top mount and have something new.

thanks for your confusion,it can take into account the needs of two structures users."Value should values by quality rather than by quantity"is famous in Chinese idioms.
but we also try hard in this way,will bring more new products this year
