Despite the wrong color, I think it looks good, maybe better. Should ask for a discount or redo though if you aren't happy.

Giving the middle finger to 60% boards. LOVE IT!

Awesome. I've always liked display writers. I'm assuming with some measurements, someone who is good at fabricating, could make wrist rests like this. I think it would make display writers very viable as daily drivers. Thanks for sharing! Maybe one day I'll be able to get one at a reasonable (hopefu...

alh84001, it looks like it. I don't have a non-w to compare with, but the mechanism looks like the one on my at101w.

"Turbo" was (correct me if I'm wrong on some details—I'm too young to have lived through the era) a feature where PCs could be underclocked for use with software that required a particular clock speed for timing. Pressing the Turbo key changed clock speeds between low and normal, making "turbo" a b...

Never saw this. Very cool. Thanks for sharing.

. My favorite layout, since it is convenient to have Windows keys. 101 key is more pleasing to the eyes though in my opinion.

I'd only take it if it were shipped to me for free. Almost definitely RD.

If you buy all the keyboards, everyone will be at your mercy. Must suck to have fat stacks. :rollseyes:

Absolutely.

Ok so probably a question (dumb) that has been answered, but are these caps going to be cherry mx? Tired and on my phone, so it's hard to browse.

I have the 5981. The switches themselves are quite nice. The letdown is definitely build quality of the board. Mine flexes like crazy, I'm sure yours is similar. The keycaps also leave something to be desired. With that being said, your board looks to be in amazing condition, and I really do like th...

So I found this thing. I have absolutely no idea what it is. Hopefully someone does. Switches are linear and pretty scratchy. I didn't see any identifying marks on them. The key caps are somewhat spherical and engraved. Recently thick. Tried fitting them on cherry switches, but no dice. The thing d...

Very cool, despite my dislike of iso. Fat ass enter though is pretty awesome.

As a final note I seriously enjoy all your reviews chyros. Thanks for sharing.

That sounds like it sucks. Glad it isn't painful like when your hand "falls asleep". I can't really relate, but I lost feeling in my right lower lip for a couple weeks following surgery, and it was scary not knowing if I'd ever get feeling back. Here's to a quick and surgery-free recovery. Sent from...

Thanks

I thought I had seen that switch before, but couldn't place it.

Yup! It will be interesting to see if someone actually buys it. This is the first NIB XT I've seen myself. :lol: Anyhow..

I wish I could try a set of these if you end up manufacturing them, but I actually don't have any Cherry mount keycaps in a flat profile (just OEM, which wouldn't work with adapters, I presume, given the precurved BS plate). Those custom keycap group buys always seem to be $100+, which is just too ...

i don't like black too, probably because of its weight it feels so hard to type fast on them. We don't get along very well. I am really liking white and cream damped though. I've never tried white alps but I've tried dampened cream alps and salmon alps. I like cream alps, but love salmon alps. As w...

I have owned two AT101W's. One in good shape, the other in poor shape. The difference was really night and day. Black Alps are still my least favorite, besides bad alps clones.

Interesting. I have never seen a green stabilizer insert before. The led indicator sticker looks odd to me, but that could be my eyes playing tricks on me. Or the white balance being off. But those key caps are cool.

Definitely a keeper. Layout-wise obviously not the best, but 100 percent usable. I love thinking of model f keyboards as low profile. Different times for sure. I wonder what people thought about beam spring vs model f back in the day. I can easily see people liking the "low profile" nature of the F ...

You ended that video like a boss! How smooth are the switches? Also I'm assuming these are not cherry compatible.

Those Epson caps look incredibly thick.

Very nice. I have a salmon one myself. I really enjoy it. I've heard most people enjoy orange alps more, and brown alps seem to be very coveted. I'll probably never own brown, but I'm keeping my eyes open for a cheap aek with orange alps. @muirium orange alps seem to be harder to find (from my limit...
