Hi Geekhack!
« on: Sun, 07 September 2014, 14:07:03 »
Hey geek hackers!

Been lurking for a few days, found out about you via /r/MechanicalKeyboards.

Just put in an order on a Poker 2 from qtan5370.

Hoping it arrives promptly - it'll be my first mechanical keyboard.

Hoping to be able to contribute to the community in some way!

I chose browns, I hope I don't regret it. Was going to pick blues but I don't want to be "that guy" at work.

Browns are quieter, I like browns. Enjoy man!

Welcome to Geekhack!

qtan is great to order from - usually fast and reliable shipping.  If in doubt, he has a vendor forum here too!
"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
