Mechanical Keyboards

You’re right - post amended.

That's a brilliant idea.

I think I want a 60% keyboard with Cherry MX Blue, but while spunking £100 on something I dont really need is the LFGSS thing to do, I'm gonna resist.

I ordered one with Brown switches (and comes with windows keys)

(and comes with windows keys)

@damitamit I thought that from the Keychron site, but KeyboardCo list these as Mac only

They all come boxed with Win modifier keys.

If this ends up not being the case for you, i'll happily ship you mine...

Glad to hear, thanks. I'll keep any eye out for red stock.

That keyboard looks so clean, love it! I was thinking of a similar layout, but it won't come cheap if I wanna go lopro.

Thanks! Insulation tape is good for everything, thus it must be within arm's reach.

Arrived already! Came with windows keys as mentioned before. Seems a bit high but will see how I get on...

Re Keychron, I now have both their K2 and K6, don’t know why I need both but... love them both. I need a palm rest otherwise they are a bit high for me. No other complaint.

Anyone wants a cheap Keychron keyboard should head over to Kickstarter, they have just started a new campaign, but it’s for a tenkeyless keyboard - K8, so not as compact as the K6.

Having started with the gateway drug of a blue switch redragon TKL I've just ordered a Durgod Taurus K320 with browns:

and a Glorious PC Gaming Race STEALTH TKL wrist rest (what a nightmare to find something without awful logos) :

I'm going to ask my work on Monday to buy me a Kensington Expert 64325:

On the topic of rollerballs/mouse alternatives, I've really been enjoying my Rollermouse, if anyone feels like going off the deep end on peripherals.
Doesn't work for gaming though

Glorious PC Gaming Race STEALTH TKL wrist rest

I might get this, thanks. although I'm trying to hover type more, I can't seem to get used to it.

I also thought about getting this to glue to my MX master 2s https://www.posturite.co.uk/mousebean.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjw_ez2BRCyARIsAJfg-kt-kuFZ2fbsKH4PFpys6KSqJCpk4_YInjQIe1TYOVEmYqkei5eMBlIaAoZcEALw_wcB

@IrPOWERranger Yeah i'm keeping my performance MX at hand, for non-work

That's intriguing, so the slides/rolly bar at the top controls the cursor position?

Yeah it's pretty intuitive. Really nice not having to move your arm back&forth to the mouse

Nice, the same model I'm going to buy. Did you buy from Amazon or somewhere else?

Yeah, I couldn't see anyone else stocking the UK ISO layout

anyone want a near brand new and mint Keychron K2 UK ISO RGB Backlit Aluminium board? Gateron Blues. After a bit of a comparison I'm keeping the brown switch one. £80

K3 looks good

right

Slightly regretting buying that keyboard from @hiraethus for my other half; Jesus! does she hammer the keys. I have a leftie black cherry switch thing incoming so I should be able to drown her out with my own clicking soon.

@ObiWomKenobi Is that a K8 in the middle? How come you got it already?
