it's crazy that you signed up because you got a DAS and you still have it 4 years later. do you like it or just couldn't afford another if you don't mind me asking?
Well I will say that I guess after I got it I was satisfied enough to keep it. It's been an awesome keyboard! I had just got done building my first computer capable of any serious gaming back then and the DAS was the keyboard I sprung for because some of the streamers I watched talked about them all the time. Money was short and it did the job so I rolled with it. I knew there was a whole world of mechanical keyboards out there, but I didn't feel the need to drop serious cash to turn it into a hobby. On top of that I'm very big into photography, cars, and motorcycles so that takes up a lot of funds as well. Hell I still haven't even changed the caps out to anything cool yet.
Like I said in my OP I stumbled r/mechanicalkeyboards and all of the awesome feelings when I got the DAS came flooding back to me and now I think I'm really interested in throwing some money on a better board. And knowing me once I jump down that rabbit hole I'm sure I'll get addicted.
So first thing's first for me I actually want to get a smaller silent board for work as I am tired of this crap Dell rubber cap one then I want to get a better full board for home. Thus begins my journey!
