« on: Wed, 01 April 2015, 13:09:25 »

Also if that is geekhack does this mean Corsair just picked Geekhack over all other keyboard related forums? Mind blown

Strange part is the one where he takes the SSK and throws it and then say that he got used to good mechanical keyboards when young and then created the best keyboard. I know they won't say their product is not the best, but they at least should not compare it to such a good keyboard as the ssk!

I cant believe I jumped with horror when he threw the SSK, I don't even jump with horror when my dog power slides into walls.

I need to take a break from keyboards.

"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

It's pretty obvious there's someone just off screen catching it.

Wouldn't want the floor to get dented.
