Topre lovin' Canadian girl
« on: Fri, 21 February 2014, 15:00:36 »
I guess I should I finally do an obligatory new member post.  :rolleyes:

I first discovered mechanical keyboards when I stumbled upon a Wikipedia article about the IBM Model M board. And we all know what happens when you start leisurely reading on Wikipedia. That led to reading about buckling springs, which led me to youtube videos, which led me to videos of Cherry MX boards, which resulted in me owning a Das S Pro with MX blue switches a few months later. I was satisfied for a while... until Topre came into my life.

For any of you geekhackers who posted youtube videos of the HHKB, RealForce, and Leopold fc660c, you are the reason I'm here - and with less money in my wallet, but happy nonetheless.  ;D

I almost ordered a Unicomp before I got my Das, but no I've yet to try it. Although, I'm pretty sure I used one in school years, and years ago in a computer class lol!

Hello fellow Ontarian! Your mayor had quite the celebration with the woman's hockey gold medal game. Love it.

How come there aren't any region based threads to discuss meetups? I'd be up for one! It would make it easier for us to conduct trades/sales as well! Plus of course, show off and try each other's boards.  :cool:

There's a Montreal meetup thread here but meetups are typically discussed in off topic. Plus I think meetups are kind of a newer thing on GH.
