The video finally loaded. I think I've seen that keyboard before but can't recall what it was. I think it's blue also.

Famous people has greater ego so they tend to use noisy switch :-) to attract attention.

A lot of less famous people, like ME, use brown.

Notch is such a badass.

Yeah, yeah. In previous threads people have posted that he has been using an old IBM Model M, and then a Unicomp.
