1. Don't write them emails, go there and visit them. Explain to them what your intentions are and proof to them you're serious about it. 2. Get a small business for the purpose of claiming these keyboards from the recycling plants. You've already figured out that by EU law, it is very difficult for ...

Most intense sales thread ever ... better than Game of Thrones

Isn't there still 52 more minutes? I offer 130 EUR.

HAH good point ... everyone in Europe is currently on CE_______S_______T but it's still more than half an hour in CET

Even stronger argument in favor of keyboards now with advent of analog gaming keyboards. LOL!!!! What we've seen of analog gaming keyboards so far isn't more than a useless proof-of-concept The technology is so bad and flawed, I can't understand how it's being marketed at all. The only thing more p...

Kill it with fire

What a beauty. Reminds me of the Zenith Cherry too!
Glad to know this one is in good hands

I‘d need 3 months just to pay for that shipping!!!

I really approve of this new GB! And it doesn‘t mean HADapter II isn‘t going to ever happen. But it really takes the pressure off me and allows everyone to get their bottom rows right. Also HADapterII might take a whole different turn now that this GB is covering these caps. As mentioned before, I w...

Thanks for coming up with this @jani80k

I will probably join the GB myself since I love those R5 caps!

Came hard, thanks. Keep the change <3

A decent shelf and some boxes work wonder

Oh yeah totally - we should be collecting noteworthy dates an add them to the calendar (props to depletedvespene) but also offer this as a little incentive for sponsors!

I could sponsor it and put my birthday in there!!!

May I suggest that sponsors can add special dates to the calendar based on their contribution?
If we could get Alps as a sponsor they could add the date the SKCM design was patented as a highlighted date or something like that ...

I'm clearly unable to get people involved

I can suck up to some companies and beg for goodies

And I am planning to send in TONS of hot hot hot pics.

Really happy to see this board has found such a nice home. Thanks for taking good care of it.

DT calendar only if it features kbdfr in a mankini

Like the Pirelli calendar but with keyboards and nerds

I can feel the love from here.

Hot and steamy

Shut the fuck up you pleb

Well not quite ... I was actually trying to hint that there are people who have put a lot more effort into keeping track of THEIR contributions so far

It just seems that your narcissism hasn't reached the level where you construct a search for your own topics

For the fans!

I can find chinese switch RGB keyboards on Amazon with PRIME delivery for nearly half the discounted price:

What's you BEST price?

I love the idea. People have so many great ideas. That‘s also how AIDS somehow got transmitted from monkeys to humans.

Do you intend to harvest the switches?

Why would you think Pot of Greed would do that?
Why would anyone do that?

God damnit I wish I could admit that every once in a while. I was doing well fighting a downhill battle but you‘re clearly the greater man.

And Cherry MY was clearly a cost saving measure. I guess they looked at the IBM Model M and told themselves:

"Oh wow a membrane keyboard that is nearly impossible to service properly? I bet we can do worse!"

Wodan, why do you think the switch lineup you so defend is called Cherry MX? The "X" stands for 10. There were previous series and revisions within them, to fit different specs or to improve iteratively on previous designs. Sometimes this isn't for the better, either. Think of Cherry MY. Not an imp...

What's the alternative to iterative design then? Making revisions is how everything works. Computers, cars, every piece of technology will be worked on and updated. I don't get how getting better is a bad thing at all? You're talking about consumer electronics and other more "fashionable" items lik...

... and they've gotten better with every iteration IMO. Literally my point ... to me, that's an indicator for a shitty product and people still put up with that way of bringing products to the market. Chinese company shells out half-baked "innovation", people suck that stuff up like it's a blessing...

Well ... I didn't mean to sound so harsh, sorry for that. And I guess you could really call this a "cultural" thing. If you encourage short innovation cycles and appreciate products just for being new or different, you will get inconsistent products no one really feels responsible for because by the...
