lurked around for a bit, first post!
« on: Sat, 16 March 2013, 22:59:59 »
Read posts on here for awhile from time to time, got into mechanical keyboards a year and a half ago with my purchase of a Das Keyboard Model S Ultimate (blue's), and have fallen in love. Currently in college and the keyboard gets quite a bit of use (I use a custom Linux setup that is quite keyboard friendly, other than skype pretty much everything can/is controlled by keyboard!)

Looking to expand my collection sometime soon, want to buy a few new caps for my das keyboard and probably purchase a nice little kbc poker or kbt pure for easier transportation to work (The Das is great and all but it's far from portable).

Anyway, this is a great site and community! Can't wait to start contributing a bit as well hopefully :)

Welcome to Geekhack! :)  Nice keyboard to start off with... I started off with that as well 3 or 4 years ago.  It can be addicting once you start getting into key caps and such. :)

Thanks for the welcome guys! :D

And yeah, I can see how addicting this can get >.> luckily I'm managing to not buy *too* much, my wallet is beginning to shed a few tears though lol.

Lol I know, but I need something soon for work, going to be doing a lot of coding and don't have a mechanical I can bring back and forth. I plan on getting a GH60 at some point, though I'll probably do a custom PCB of it (want to add some lines of LED's or something, and a DVORAK/QWERTY physical switch or something along those lines).

For now though Last year will work just fine :)

And if you happen to have one of these "so last year" keyboards and don't mind parting with it I would consider making an offer ;)

Sorry sold mine to a lucky customer a little while back.
Seems like someone is selling their poker every other week or so.
