Lurker type, some on here will know me

[Shirty]

Hello everyone, I'm Nick and I've popped in here to lurk a number of times, but never got round to registering an account until today.

There will be a handful of folks in here who recognise me from my other main forum, but I'll try to get involved as much as I can whenever I swing by here too.

For an internet cookie, identify this keyboard without cheating:

Damn sexy board, Shirty! Admittedly I had to cheat as I wanted to check the other images of it, the combination works so nicely . Also fond of bit-tech, their forums have a great modding community  .

[Shirty]

Thanks! She's my first proper modding board and an absolute pleasure to work with, but I think I'm up to 19 mechs in total since the bug bit at the start of 2012!

I only tend to keep 2 or 3 at a time though, I like to use my mechs rather than collect them.

Oh, and I'm not overly fond of Topre, I like my keyboards mechanical  )

Without cheating, I'd say it looks like a modded G80-8113. Is that close?

[Photekq]

The name of that board is on the tip of my tongue but I can't quite remember it.

Keycaps are from your G80-8937LSDGB that's on ebay

It's not close, although they are PBT G80 caps as Photekq has identified. Clue: it is a modern German keyboard, and the macro keys along the top are hardware rather than software driven.

Spot on on the keycaps 

Have you come across the keyboard elsewhere or do you just recognise the shape/layout?

Hey Shirty! Good to see you here as well.

[Shirty]

Hey Jacco, nice to be here.

This is the man who made me buy my FC660M - once I'd been inside yours I knew it was only a matter of time

[Photekq]

I've seen the board before - not yours, but someone elses. I'd recognise that weird ass layout any day, but I just can't remember the name.. What's the name of the board?
