Hello from Australia
« on: Mon, 16 February 2015, 19:28:01 »
Hi guys,
Love my black 87u but need some more visible keycaps so came here to suss out the options. Seems like a great community.

You know its interesting - i never had an issue with this username over the last 7 or so years but this is the second time in a week its been brought up (and the second time ever). I actually had to change it over on Fred Miranda. I understand the racial connotations and history of the doll now but years ago it was simply my (friendly) nickname due to my large head and skinny frame.

Mods if you'd like me to change it I'm happy to.

Welcome to Geekhack!

Topre keycap sets are unfortunately hard to come by these days.

The best place is widebasket on eBay - he has a range of colours and printed/blank.

"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
