Hello GH!
« on: Mon, 20 July 2015, 01:50:48 »
Just want to give a quick hello to everyone.  I'm Ruckus and I come here via /r/mechanicalkeyboards.  Even so I am fairly new to that community too.  30 year old government employee in Washington DC and have only just recently purchased my first mechanical keyboard last week.  Replaced my less than reliable Razer Lycosa with a KUL ES-87 rocking cherry clears.  WHAT. AN. AMAZING. DIFFERENCE!  I'm in love with the build quality, the feel, and the looks of my new mk.  You butter believe I've been bitten with the bug now and have already made several purchases on massdrop and through vendor sites to truly make my new keyboard my own.  I also may or may not already be looking to get another board with Topre switches. 

Out with the Old, In with the New( Horrible cellphone pics)



Day 2 of owning my ES-87 and I've already begun swapping out parts

Welcome to Geekhack!

Great first keyboard - solid and reliable.  It should last you for years.

No problems taking your own keyboard to a government job?  We had a thread a while back where a lot of people were saying they had all sorts of limitations on what they were allowed to take to work, especially government employees!

"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
