Short description: title says it all.

Long description: I am very much into mechs (currently I'm at 5 boards). However for work in a crowded office the ones that feel real good are a no no, because of the noise which is majestic to me, but not to others (those weird people who don't have a mech ...

With Speed Silver you will bottom out too early and hurt your fingers. I'd just get normal reds or yellows.
If I'm paying for a full-travel keyboard, I'm using the full travel.


Well in most cases this would be a correct statement. However, since I had the pleasure of learning 10 finger typing ...

Thank you all for the opinions. Unfortunately distance between me and the other person makes the trying out part uneconomical.

Decided in the end that I will spray lube this Cherry board, to make it a bit smoother, because the switches look really tricky to open up without causing bad damage to ...

I would kindly like to request an assistance. I am a semi proud owner of one Cherry g84 keyb, and I am thinking about exchanging it for one hyperx keyboard with speed silver switches.

The problem is that I never had any experience with speed silver switches (or any Kailh made to be more precise ...

I've got an ultra top secret (well not really, it's just a trade secret...) lube from Japan which I use for lubing my Dell keybs. It's effects are aren't eternal, as it starts to ware off in about 9-12 months.

If Chyros wants some sample to test, he can receive it via post (send me a pm). I would ...

Went out on a binge shopping spree (all used boards, for cheap). This was the first arrival: https://www.speedlink.com/RAPAX-Gaming-Keyboard-black/SL-6480-BK.

Although it looks atrocious, and the spacebar rattle will be hard to fix (springs are used as stabilizers) I am quite actually amazed how ...

Everyone praises these and tells that they are cheap as chips. Can someone please show me where can they be bought cheap (EU) with shipping (because I haven't found any in my country)?

My first vintage keyboard was a Dell AT102W and it's stood the test of time. When I first had it, it was a mess and I've spent a LOT of time on it cleaning it, messing with the switches (which were surprisingly clean) and using it for all tasks. It's a great keyboard and I've used it without the ...

I have started to eye ball cherry g80-3000. I could probably get it for a reasonable price. Do all of these keyboard come with mx blue switches, and are they reasonably durable?

Let's say for the sake of the argument, I was to get some random money... And some of that money I decide to invest into a keyboard with some clickety clack keys (let's say I like the sound of mx blues, if I understood the youtube review of key correctly). Which affordable keyboard would you suggest ...

Well saving is going to be a big issues for me. You have to take into account that the world cup begins in 4 days. Therefore I will need as much money as I can get for beer and hard liquor. I hope we don't get completely demolished in the first game against Brazil. Sorry for the off topic.

Well this is starting to look like a real thread, maybe we will even get some flaming on? :mrgreen: Flaming is nice (and puts our keyboards to good use)

Fortunately, DT is usually free of flamewars. It's a pretty nice place to be, at least it has been for as long as I've been here. Flamewars aren ...

You are right, petitions never work. Just a useless waste of time... They wouldn't be if the people which need to see them, actually saw them. I ...

Well I would love to me some model m's, but for my location, all the ones from ebay start to become really really expensive...

Been to a local store. Sidewinder x4 seems ok, but it's out of my price range. Every other keyboard I tried in the store feels more or less the same, quite unresponsive.

Absurd as it seems, this might be the kind of question to ask someplace where people know less about keyboards. We're much too snobby to suggest some turd in good faith. But pretty much everywhere else online this isn't such a problem!

I see. Maybe I asked the question wrong? How about this!

Let ...

It is my humble opinion that the Apple keyboard is overpriced POS. No pun intended. For that price it would be ok, but it seems that his has some problems.

First of all I would like to say Hi!!! to all forum members. It's my first post!!! (I've been reading though for a long time)

This is my problem. I'm on a tight budget. I'm used to Logitech ultrax premium (had it for ages), but sadly it's time has passed.

So I'm for a similar keyboard. The ...
