If all things were bought with dance moves then I would be the wealthiest man alive.

Isn't there a unicorn cave somewhere in Korea?

If so, that's probably where you get one.

I've never really had success on that site. The load times seem to take ages as well.
How did I get a Kmac? Waited till I saw one for sale and jumped on it. I think that's the most used method.
Otherwise probably try to make friends with hookups.

i'm also a member of kbdmania. yes, u can buy from ppl in kbdmania but it's even hard there since kmac is a popular kbd, everyone wants to buy.
I'm pretty sure it's even harder to buy kmac in geekhack.

So, simply, just wait. When someone sells, u buy. There is no store.

I just sold out all of them yesterday.  I'll get more soon I think.  I'll have a new web-site with all the updates, but you can check us out on our vendor forum for now.

Oh, I got it!

Sometimes, when a mommy keyboard and a daddy keyboard love each other very much, they lay in bed together and hug.  That's how you buy a KMAC.

Hmmm......

Well ok One keyboard would have to have an attached non-removable USB cord... And the other would have to have a usb HUB/ or removable cord with the mini-usb hole..

THUS if they "connect"...

did I just make it weird.

Dude... so you're into homokeyboarotica..  Now, are we agreeing that both keyboards are females if they have the detachable minib port?

Hmm... I'm not sure if my keyboard is into that sorta thing...

The way I got mine was someone was offering one as trade bait for something even more rare, and I bugged them with cash offers (and all three of my CCs) until they broke down and sold it to me.

I would like to buy one of these too. I saw pictures and they look awesome. I wanted to modify my Filco to look like this and considered the "vortex" aluminum case, but that one looks like it has problems. I would like to find one of these too. Thank you.

Keep an eye out in Classifieds.  A lot of people can't get used to the layout so they'd be selling them.

Again, start a thread in Classifieds.  KMAC2 (or KMAC Evolution) is coming out soon.  A lot of people might be letting go of their first KMAC since they don't need 2 of them (or sellling the first one to help pay for the second lol).  :)
