Hello geekhack community
I am done lurking, time to start participating.
I am in the market for my first mechanical keyboard, probably my first tenkeyless or a 60%. I clearly remember my dad's old IBM Model M keyboards, however he doesn't have them anymore. The interest, I have to admit, is driven by some nostalgia.
I am still assimilating the abundance of information about mechanical keyboards (and keyboard layouts), clearly a decision will still take some time. I have already decided to have blank keys, as I am still researching the best layout (as a Belgian who has to type Dutch and program in English, I am not comfortable with Azerty).
I like the look of the HHKB or the WASD keyboards or any other minimal looking keyboards.
