But why?
Just read two pages back, I don't think that repeating something you don't wont to listen could be useful for anyone.
Again, this is from the guy who thinks we should all rip apart Cherry keyboards and mix them together
You can do whatever you want with your keyboards and with your likings and you cold still arguing about something you never tried, is not a problem for me.
But keeping scaring the newcomers just because something you don't like is not helpful for them. At all.
When you say "any", you mean to say "my".
You should sue the real life, like in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, whenever it differs from your likings, and this is the case.
Language barrier, as you say.
There's no language barrier here, and I never said it. Was a more than reasonable hypothesis by bhtooefr, he was too optimist.
Ok. So, if the OP were to buy a terminal IBM keyboard and mod it to be PC compatible, would that make it mainstream enough for you?
So you started mixing my opinions in a random way to impose your point of view ?
What has to do the pleasure of doing something for yourself (which is still a pleasure no matter what keyboard is taken in account) with the average likings of the keyboard users ?
So, we should not recommend buckling springs because people in China use brown switches?
You must be the guy that blend anything with his blender, he does it with iphones, you do it with my posts.
I suggest to mix the single letters instead of pieces of sentences, you will get more flexibility.
In other words we should all just use rubber dome keyboards, right?
This was already happened long time ago. Likely mech boards are the 0.1% of the whole market and BS are likely the the 10% or less of this nice.
If you don't like it there's always the option of suing the real world.
We certainly shouldn't be making magic mixes of random Cherry switches, because those sure as hell aren't "average"
As usual you start with reasonable sentences, and end with incredibly silly ones when you can't impose your POV.
