Ohh mighty oracle, I am but still having troubles. I do wish for a keyboard with Blue switches, but is is best to settle for browns on the Poker that I do dream of having? Or shall I decline myself the right to have the gorgeous Poker and settle on a fc200r or the new Ducky Shine in a few weeks wit...

Cherry MX Reds are desired, nay, REQUIRED in every key depressed by her delicate touch. Dedicated media keys are not a luxury to be dismissed and may yet even determine whether the gift is received with exuberance or pensive resignation. A 10 key is preferred, though if it be as such that the devic...

Oh Keyboard Oracle, my passion for mx boards is waining and my desire for Topre is increasing by the day. I have a HHKB2, do I need the type s too? The Keyboard Oracle has decided: No, unless your environment dictates that you make a not very loud and rather pleasantly sounding keyboard a bit more ...

Is there a keyboard with Cherry MX PCB-mounted Red or Brown switches that has full NKRO (or at least 18NKRO) over USB? (It will be used on a computer without a ps2 port.) I really need at least 18NKRO. I looked at the Nopoo Choc, but it is plate-mounted and I must have PCB-mounted switches. The Key...

I regret to inform the Oracle that I need full ISO, with winkeys, as I don't intend to waste space on a 40% board. Does the almighty Oracle have any other suggestions? The Keyboard Oracle has decided: You will be looking at keyboards such as the more modern G80-3000 series from Cherry, because the ...

In my quest to achieve enlightenment I have been led to the mighty altar of APL. The ancient writings on the walls of this temple are difficult to decrypt and harder to reproduce with my mortal input device. Where should I go in search of a tool worthy of A Programming Language? I feel that Cherry ...

I am looking for a small ISO board, think 40% pure poker, race etc size but since there seem to be none in ISO, I will attempt to make my own. What is a cheap board that would be relatively easy to cut and retrace ? Case and caps do not matter as I can pick my won and have my own case made. It need...

I am looking for an extremely cheap mechanical keyboard, for under $50/USD. I am ok with a used keyboard, don't mind beige, but need it to be quiet (MX Browns?). I may be interested in modding it down the road. I have not used a mechanical keyboard before except for buckling springs (which are too ...

I have searched high and low and have not found these special possessed key markings, nary even a thought that they might even be backlightable. Is that even a word O great one? In your travels have you ever spied such a wonder? The Keyboard Oracle has decided: The Oracle is not aware of those spec...

I wish to consult you on my forbidden love: the XT layout. I have a working IBM PC keyboard, but my colleagues won't tolerate its eldritch noises. Is there a somehow-available Cherry MX clone which thee has encountered so that I could type in near-silence? Modern varieties could be nice, as legacy ...

Wisest oracle, I humbly approach thee. I would like a compact layout with real arrow keys, real F-keys, and real Home/End/PgUp/PgDn buttons with Cherry Reds PCB mounted so that I might swap their springs. The Race looks perfect, but it is backlit and I would have to desolder a LED from each keyswit...

Oh great one, I really want a topre keyboard... but I can't decide which keyboard. Hint, I really like the Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional 2. But I'd still like your opinion, of course... oh great one. The Keyboard Oracle has decided: Your Higher Self is ready for your heart to be light and fre...

What would his righteousness recommend as a wristrest for a Filco Majestouch 2 104key? I used to use a Microsoft Sidewinder X4 and found the wristrest soothing as I tend to drop my wrists, and I hear that the Steelseries 7G wristrest is also quite comfortable. I am not opposed to soft wristwrests e...

The Keyboard Oracle has decided: ETA is the second week of August.

The Keyboard Oracle has decided: Buy Unicomp for a fresh set of buckling springs.

Whoa, an Oracle. Gotta try this out. I first ordered a Cherry MX Blue Filco that was black but I wanted white beige a lot more so I got the white beige Cherry MX Brown Filco instead. What will happen to me? The Keyboard Oracle has decided: You have entered only the first steps on the path of enligh...
