Was wondering if the full-size filco had the same misaligned up arrow that the TKL ones have.

Really?

Is the pic just not showing the problem well?

Someone mentioned that their full size ninja is aligned well so I guess that answers my question.

It doesn't seem a little towards the right to you?

Couldn't care less if it's categorized in the McRip effect. It is misaligned enough for me to notice. Just wanted to know if the fullsize had the same misalignment.

Please learn to touch type, then you will not be so nitpicky and perfection oriented.

I get about 80wpm; I'm also nitpicky/perfection oriented. Nothing wrong with wanting my keyboard how I want it :D

As far as I can tell, the up arrow key on my fullsize is properly centered. I don't care either way, though. I don't see the slight misalignment as a problem.

Yeah, It seems that way from what I see from other posts. To each his own though.

You want to talk about alignment, have you seen the Unicomp Spacesaver case?

Look at my avatar, that Esc key barrel is off center by a full 2 mm. It would bother me more if it just wasn't the way they're built.
