Hi there!
My name is shrapneL. I am 23 years old and I am from Ohio, USA. My interest in keyboards (especially of the mechanical type) started a year or two ago. I started out with the Razer Blackwidow with blue cherry mx switches. Since I usually wear headphones at my computer, I never really noticed how loud the keys were until my friends starting telling me. This is really when I started to research keyboards. I came across someone who really liked the black switches for they are much quieter than the blue switches. I ended up doing a little research on the more consumer branded keyboards, and I came across the CM Storm QFR with black switches. This keyboard has been my main for about a year now, and I enjoy it quite a bit!
Fast forward to a few weeks ago. I forget how, but I stumbled onto geekhack's site and found all of the cool and interesting stuff on this site. Of course I checked out the group buy area, and, man, I really want to get into building a keyboard of my own! Around this time I also found deskthority. Both of these sites have some wonderful information to feed my obsession for keyboards now.
Well, thanks for checking me out. I hope to meet some of you great people in the coming weeks and months!
Cheers!
