Finding Keycaps
« on: Wed, 20 November 2013, 00:08:13 »
Hi, i have been trying to find the keycaps in this picture http://i.imgur.com/e0r5K.jpg and i was wondering if anyone could help me look for them or if anyone could suggest keycaps that look similar to them.

That looks like the Red Alert set.  I don't know of any similar caps, though you may be able to find someone who is willing to part with them in the classified.  Of course, you need to hit 60 posts (which should be quality posts) before you can post a Want to Buy (WTB) thread.

Its the red alert set. Someone had it for sale in the classified section within the last 2 or 3 days ago. Im sure its sold by now though. You will just need to keep an eye out I guess.

eta: at a second glance red alert has different modifier legends. this may be something else

You should post in the classified once you have 60 posts

Red Alert

Thanks to our wonderful Keepers of the Faith!
"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
