A bit of an unrelated chiming in... Model M and HHKB are the pinnacles of keyboards for me, yet I can type on neither of them. The best layout for me is unfortunately a 40%... I prefer lighter switches too, so no stock MX Clears or MX blacks for me...

Interested to see how it compares with the "original". And silent tactile sounds interesting.

this hasn't been flashed
fancy side-shot

The HHKB's tactility starts right at the top of the switch, if it has hypersphere rings it's possible that they have reduced the tactility and the overall weight of the switch due to the fact the domes will be partially depressed. I know my Novatouch feels a lot lighter and less tactile after ...

So I recently bought a used HHKB from Yahoo aucs. It's a A0 made in 2008, with a Pro2 case. Anyway, today I met up with scottc and we compared our HHKBs. His was a hypersphere-d A0 Pro1, from 2005. I was surprised that the domes felt way lighter than mine. Mine feels so stiff I wondered if they are ...

I'm so jealous, that looks like a great board. You should post a typing video

Are you the next in line?

What are the chances of finding NIB Orange alps keyboards?

HHKB no ragrats

I'm just kidding. I bought my HHKB, hated it, loved it, hated it, almost sold it a couple of times, once I touch it it's like drugs... Don't buy it it'll make you lovesick

I suppose this is the food picture thread for just posting pictures, not explaining how to make it. Anybody here ever try kimchee gigae (kimchee stew - no meat), shigumchee (spinach with sesame oil), koongnamel (sprouts with sesame oil) and chicken breast with gochujung (hot bean paste)? There's ...

Woah, what a great view!

So pretty! What switches are those?

AHHHHHHHHHHAm liking it!

Yes Johan Liebert....I predicted as much. Monster is the best anime ever! But I digress.

It really is a masterpiece nothing quite like it. It's up there with with AKIRA, Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell for sure. Mr. Dull, an anime fan! What a revelation!

My favourite anime is Code Geass. I ...

My first "keyboard" keyboard is Poker II MX clears from the Vanman himself.

Here is how it looks like while running, although the video is recorded through an NES emulator called virtualNES.

Here is the FDD model from another famous brand, if my memory is right this brand "Yuxing" is the first company brought FDD model into the market. The machine has a ...

This is only the beginning, Mr Palazzo. Wait till you start modding these things. You should have just thrown the HHKB into the bin and be done with topre...

Nice find!

I would love to try it! What's the timing gonna be like though?

Ricey keyboards... what kind of rice? Premium japanese and korean

Nice setup! - better than those extra large mouse pad.

Scrap that... My hhkb is so broken

I wish I could say it is intentionally chic, but it's just shabby. I just ate the apple yesterday...

There are silenced HHKB models as well, the Type-S.

seems like he was looking for a TKL though

My rule of thumb.

If you like MX Clears more than MX Browns, you'll like the Halo Clears. It has more of a feeling like an MX style switch with awesome tactility.

Otherwise Halo True is for you. The Halo True has a gentle and smooth lead-in (due to lower preload) and higher final resistance to ...

As for shoe posts... please no

that's true... sorry :<
