I made the mistake of letting my Filco wrist-wrest and accessories go with my keyboard when I sold it. Why did I do that? I don't know. If I was thinking I should have kept the wrist-wrest, key puller, and red-escape key. Now I'm thinking about getting another tenkeyless board or just another mechan...

On another note...why isn't there any where to try these keyboards out in stores in the US. The only mechanical keyboard I've seen in a store was a Das Keyboard at a MicroCenter.

Too many switches to decide....Blues, Browns, Clears, Blacks, and now Reds. I have a feeling my wallets not going to come out ahead.

$99 wow. I wonder how much the full size Leopolds will be. If the price of the fullsize isn't much more than $99. I can't really see even thinking about getting a Das Keyboard or a Steelseries. Although the "No return except for exact replacement" warrant does bother me some. I know you can resale y...

I guess I'm a little confused with the Cherry Reds. I guess I don't understand the hype/demand for them if they are just lighter resistance Cherry Blacks. From the threads/posts I read most people don't like Cherry Blacks. Can someone shed some light on this.

Hmm... I'm kinda sad to see them go. The only experience I've had with them are a few individual switches I bought from Digi-Key. I think I would like a keyboard with Clears. Clears seem to feel pretty similar to what a good membrane keyboard feels like. I like mechanical keyboards, but I havn't bee...

Other than pulling switches, does anyone know where to buy the actual switches from? I would only like a few of each.

I already have Cherry Clears, Blacks, and Blues from Digi-Key.

I've always had good luck with cheap peripherals. I've used a Dell L100 keyboard for as long as I can remember and a Microsoft Basic Optical Mouse for at least 5 years. I haven't had problems with either. The added bonus is if either break they are very cheap to replace. The keyboard can be bought f...

Strangely enough. I started having RSI problems with my mouse hand after switching to a taller desk. It took about 3 months for the pain to start. I tried various wrist-wrests and the pain wouldn't go away. Shortly after I started using a taller chair the pain almost went completely away. I highly r...

Very interesting idea.

I tried a few months back purchasing a few of each kind of switch. All I could find was Cherry Blues, Blacks, and Clears from Digi-Key.

Where did you purchase all the various switches?

Sign me up....I'm interested in the Cherry reds.
