Dude that is one of the most beautiful boards I've ever seen! I can't wait until mine gets here this week.

Hmm reading that thread the ceramic seem to last longer? Maybe I'll just order those now to be ready then.

"The electrolytic capacitors in the logic board are prone to failure" - the wiki While mine seems to be working just fine right now, I'd like to sort of know how to fix everything just to be safe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_W33djliV0 I found that video, and it looks ok but before I order the ...

Get the new intelimouse? It sucks for gaming, but its very wonderful for office work.

I finally tracked down an ibm selectric touch keyboard(model m 2), and i dont think any selectrics used a model m(or even f) as a keyboard I have heard rumblings about some ibm type writers using both model m and model f internally. Are there any? And can i use those key caps on my model f xt/at or ...

So I now offer 400, and we are almost back to the "reasonable" prices we had 3 years (or was it two years?) ago. Still expensive for the 3 missing keys ... 3. Two it was $650 and i was saving up, then when i got enough they were like 800 i was sad but now i have an order in with elispe and 2 workin...

Worst mechanical : MODERN cherry mx name brand switches. I dont know how they make them so scratchy but its horrid, and dont get me started on brown feeling like a linear with dirt in the slider. Khial, gateron, and zealios dont have that ick, nor did the nib classic black switches i was lucky enoug...

Woah woah, woah. They took your design(round 2 design I assume), put a new label on it, and went back to massdrop!? If i understand right? Thats... well then. I wonder if its just massdrop theyre pushing this on or if theyre planning to try and use your work to launch a line... This is exactly the ...

If I were to order a second one would I have to wait for both to pass your QA testing for them to be sent out? Or would it be two different shipments? Which i think i'd prefer honestly. I ordered under my GH name but i like this website better so im posting here.

Wow... f massdrop.. I wont be doing anything with them until they git gud man. Hopefully xmit gets his money soon

Is there any way to get a nice linear hall effect now or are they gone forever again? Was hoping to get one for the office but if i cant then well thats life

The molds really dont matter that much... Even IF he were to sell them who is to say they'd be used on model F or even M keyboards? The case could be used on about any board a company wanted to put in it. Keys could be sold to buckling spring geeks like us. Like i said i hope he releases the designs...

Honestly I couldnt care less what happens to the molds, I just pray he "open sources" the design, data, schematics, whatever so that if other ambitions people come along in 30 more years we can do this again but easier lol.


But hey his property his rules, im just happy im in on this

If I dont know i may be able to ask grandpa NEC V30 processor is equivalent to an 8086, not a 286, so this keyboard is probably BIOS compatible with an XT board. T...

Long story short is the keyboard from first computer my grandpa bought, first computer anyone in my family had. Were it not for that i may not be a programmer. Anyway he gave me the old machine, still worked until the monitor deded, 286 xt clone from espon. Still got this and the case. Im gonna gut ...

kinda glad i didnt get in on the tactile round, as a suspected nothing can beat my model f, now if we could just get updated linears...

So if I understand this right its using leaf springs for the tactile and click? Thats cool kinda like apls/clones. With how smooth these switches are I can dig it, still not sure if Id rather wait for the next linear round though.

Not up already, will be online on Monday. Just noticed (because massdrop didn't include it in the spec sheet at the bottom) that there's only clicky and tactile options available .... on a hall effect keyboard ... Not sure how a 122 key version would sell better than a 75% or an ISO option or just ...

Im not too well versed on model m boards, im much more a model f guy but a bros got a birthday coming up. I figure hed like a model m(hes a coder too) but i dont know all the label differences and what they mean

its up already? :O how long will it last? I wont have money this month for it. And are there recordings of the new clicky and tactile switches? and have the feel of the linear ones changed any?

Yeah, kinda always wondered. Does it make it feel better or is it just the best way to fix missing rivets?

I mean not to sound rude but what do you mean by finally? There have been great office mice(some of which had gaming grade laser sensors) for a while now. I'll admit they arent very advertised but my brother had one and loved it.

Was excited to hear about this until I found out it uses the BlueTrack sensor which is absolute pus for gaming :( Intellimouse 3.0 with a 3310 or 3360 would be grail mouse for me. I gotta agree, tried out a friend's one last night. Were it not for that dangd angle snapping it would be just fine. Bu...

I still have like 20 of the originals on standby so I don't really think I need one, they do look very nice though. You have 20 Intelli's NIB stocked ?!? :o :mrgreen: 16behwy.jpg For what its worth the 3.0 are only about $20 on ebay(I know I got one before I knew of the new one) so they arent too h...

Like I expect it to be comfy sine it has that shape, but i hear it also uses a not so good sensor. On one had that *could* be bad for gaming, granted the greats of yore used ball mice sooo idk how bad any modern optical sensor can really be. For non gaming use i expect it to be fine but im just curi...

jelly as fuck... hows the trackball feel? Oh man montery blue with a trackball....

Cherry MX uses naming? xD

Meant color but basically the same thing here

Dear [every diety] i hope not. Go along side it sure but I need a real input device that has ergonmoics
