Hello dear fellow !
« on: Wed, 18 March 2015, 04:37:39 »
Hi Guys,

I've been lurking since a couple of months and never took the time to create an account before the group buy, so here I am, presenting myself.

I bought my first mechanical keyboard 6 months ago, a Rapid-i with Mx brown then, three months later, felt the urge to try blue so went for a pure pro with Mx  Blue. I'm now waiting for my diodes to finish my Planck with white Omron that I got on some old keyboard at work.

Having too much switches I might request your help to price check those with the qwerty keycaps, as i'm using azerty layout beeing from France...

Welcome to Geekhack!

I see you have been bitten by the keyboard bug - three keyboards and counting, is it?
"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

Thanks man !
Yeah, I think bitten is the right word for me.
Two and a half keyboard to be precise, as the planck isn't usable yet.

Most of all, I think I'm in love with building my own keyboard !
