why are kmacs so expensive?

250 is expensive? keycaps go for around that price. and they serve no purpose other than being novelty items

as compared to the $65 rosewills/CM qfr

aluminum case + custom pcb + not that many made makes it expensive

you can fully program a kmac (hardware) can't do that with a rosewill/CM. plus they come in cheap plastic cases

if the buyer of this is interested, i have enough 'vintage' mx blacks from a wyse terminal board to trade for the tactile whites. PM if you're interested. i can probably throw in mx blue/brown/red springs if you want to do ghetto reds.

send demik a pm, i dont need the switches

I've seen the term of "vintage MX black" in several places...would someone tell me what vintage mx black really is?

The case alone seals the deal, in my view. If I want my filco or CM to have an aluminium case, it's $325 dollars, plus shipping plus waiting for two other people to buy one as well before I get it.

Now we're at $400-500 And I still can't get non-traditional switches like clears or greens (loving my ghetto greens, btw demik. almost better than the blues in my ducky).

demik · « **Reply #57 on:** Fri, 26 October 2012, 03:06:25 »

heavy blues is where it's at

greens > ghetto greens > blues

love all three tho

Tenkey · « **Reply #58 on:** Fri, 26 October 2012, 03:08:47 »

greens are also clicky?

And to get real greens, you gotta go custom, heh.

Though, I am hoping boost is cool with trading good tools for a clear kmac mini...

they are heavier blues.

kinda like putting a black spring with a blue stem.

blues are too light for me. greens are perfect. but if they could be a tad bit heavier they'd be even better.

what's the difference between greens and ghetto greens?
Here is what google gave me for ghetto switch, funny but not very helpful

tjcaustin · « **Reply #63 on:** Fri, 26 October 2012, 03:23:52 »

mmm Clear/gray springs plus green stem...

We should name that.

clear+green= ??

gray + green = beetlejuice

I'm sleepy, I fail at names right now.

OK, I have some Chinese bananas and grapes. Just let me know if you have a KMAC mini for sale/trade =)

I'm looking at Kbdmania now... What's the big difference between the Kmac 2 and the Kmac LE? Doesn't look like very much, but I might have missed something.

New plate design & new PCB, only comes in Titanium, ability to change from winkey to winkeyless and the new slant case.

Thanks for clarifying this and for posting these pictures, Reaper. I'm at work, can't do the proxy thing here, and I had been waiting a long time for those pictures to load up on kdbmania

The block color will match the case color, so titanium only for KMAC2. gold ones shown in those pics are prototypes.
Revised version of KMAC also comes with the same blocks. Three colors available for the new KMAC, titanium silver and red.

Very cool! Would love to get my hands on a titanium one.

Okay, so I just recently purchased a Kmac Le from Sherryton. Do you think the improvements in the Kmac 2 are significant over the Kmac Le? I know that I'll be happy with the Kmac Le regardless, and I'm very happy that I got one, just wanted to get your ideas on this.

The KMAC is an awesome keyboard, not an iPhone. No one is going to give you **** for not having the newest one.

I think 86 and 87 will be OK, but 84 will need the spacers, to fill in the 1x spot. Am I wrong?
