Unless it's normal for Korean sites, there are a LOT of pictures of the keyboard - like they are really pushing you to buy one.

With good reason too - it looks nice.
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I wonder how that would look with red modifiers ...

I would say ugly, just too much, but that is just my opinion. I have one arriving next week and it will get the same caps only with the grey modifiers.

Ah, ok.  Difficult to tell without having seen either of them in the plastic.

:) I'm actually planning on doing that.  Although I plan on a darker red.  Maroon or Ruby, maybe.  However I doubt it could be as nice as that one :)
