I am not interested in downloading this movie. It sure is a quite good "biography"-movie which entertains you about 3 hours. I was expecting a bit "more" because of the high compliments the movie got, but after all it is a very good movie. Also nice to rewatch. I guess I will buy the Blu-Ray.

Just saw "The wolf of wall street" and spotted a lot of nice keyboards. Sadly it is too early to have some pictures.

with a dremel and some epoxy glue you can safely reshape the stems to meet Leopold's insanity Actually All other keycaps fit the Leopold so it is not their insanity. :D Very nice outfit :) One question: I can not perceive homing dots or bars in the pictures, what kind of tactile locators do these c...

I am not sure if I am able to do this :D
Also then nearly the whole bottom row will still be left. So some nice modifiers would be perfect I think. Maybe it would look nice if they would be in a darker grey.

Why not use more of the keys from the dyesubs set? You should have compatible tab, caps, shifts to fit on the fc660 too. Maybe check with imsto and see if they have any orphan keys to fill in the \|, enter and mods? I quite like these old Chery dyesubs, they are some of best keycap ever made. Hey, ...

I would love a nice simple font. Both Helvetica and DIN. I also do not think that something without backlightning and a pretty high price will attract that many "gamers".
So maybe it would be a good idea to change the "Sci-Fi-Gaming" font to a nice simple font.

Keyboard Question

Hey guys,

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I just wanted to know if anybody know more about this keyboard: http://ru.pc-history.com/es-com-keyboar ... 4-103.html

The keycaps look pretty nice. Will the fit Cherry MX? And what switches does this board use? What is it worth?

At 1:20 in the video the guy holding the camera says "Idk it looks like Topre". And the CM guy directly tells him it is not, but instead a "Coolermaster exclusive". So far I have not seen a single video in which it is exactly said that the keyboard uses Topre. Just some paraphrase like "japanese ele...

Hey, this sure is an impressive video you did. But as some already mentioned I think that it is a bit too long. You should try and get the best parts in a shorter video. I would also like if the music would be a bit more "spicy" if you know what I mean. Also you could try to use some stabilizing-fil...

I am not sure what you mean with "monochrome".

I think they look a lot like normale Laser-etched.
I love how he says that the Topre switches are "backwards-compatible" to Cherry MX.

From this youtube video we can see the new backlit Rapid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nt4TvdGt4i4
I really like that is also available in Stealth. But its sad that red switches will only support red backlightning. I only like white, but browns arent really my favorite switch.

Is that a ISO DE Layout in the picture above? The 'STRG'-label on the CTRL key and the '+' key seem kind of suspicious ;) That would be really, really exciting news for me. :D Oh I did not noticed that. Topre + MX compatible + ISO set = Instant preorder. Seriously, the hype intensifies incredible!
