Then have a good look at the layout, and if you think you can live with it, or can adapt it to your liking with the Soarer's converter, go for it. It sure has a great feel.

The spacebar of my 3101 has a PEI mark on the underside,

so it's possible they are PEI

Why do we need anything more than a simple one vote, relative majority winner system? We already have 2 rounds of voting, and the point is to vote for our one favourite X. What advantage would a ranked or other system present to make it worth the complications? I'd rather see a nominee I didn't vote...

I believe Browns is the best "newbie" switch. It's a safe bet and can guide you towards what you like more. You don't like the tactility? Go linear. Can't get enough? Go Clears/Zealios/whatever...Miss a bit of sound, go clicky... But only that far. After the first "orientation" it becomes a switch t...
