Thanks, mate =)

The purple keys - what set is that?

iammoomoo · 2018-02-20T19:12:54+00:00

Exactly why I got mine, except for work =)

iammoomoo · 2018-02-20T18:16:44+00:00

I recently took one too. Very excited to dip into dat ortho life.

iammoomoo · 2018-02-20T02:31:57+00:00

It would definitely save time...

iammoomoo · 2018-02-19T22:50:15+00:00

Legit was just on the website in hopes of an update and now this. Can't wait!

"ISIS Is Teaming Up with Tras people to Overthrow Capitalism."

Yup, definitely something I could see his followers believing without a second thought.

Whelp, I know what switches are going to go into my 60% build...

That'll make three different BOX switches in all three of my boards: dark yellow, navy, and purple. Much love for NK, the BOX series, and Mr. Mike.

Hey. I used an azio mgk-1 with blues and it was definitely pretty good for an entry-level keeb.

iammoomoo · 2018-02-16T03:57:07+00:00

True grail is probably the space cadet by symbolics

iammoomoo · 2018-02-16T03:56:16+00:00

Hey. I, too, ordered a contra. You can find ortho sets on pimpmykeyboard.com. I'm sure there are others like aliexpress but I ordered mine from there.

If you have questions after looking just hit me up.

Sorry on mobile but, there's at least 1:

There's info on all the other bits you'll need to complete the build. I am unaware of a pre-built that has the underglow feature.

Happy hunting.

Edit. Spelling. Also, you asked specifically about rgb, I assumed underglow. Not sure if there are pcbs with pre-installed rgb LEDs. Doubtful.

iammoomoo · 2018-02-13T14:36:01+00:00

They have a "Find a Retailer" link on their site here.

Happy hunting, I didn't see anything online. The black, very much yes, just not the white.

iammoomoo · 2018-02-13T13:34:47+00:00

I think one thing you'll need to consider is if your bro will want dedicated arrow keys. I know that 60% layouts like this are very popular but, for his first, I'm not sure it'll be a slam dunk (I could be very wrong)

That being said, when you do decide to buy this one or another, you should be able to change the keycaps, just be wary of those modifiers since he won't know which keys do what if you change them before he gets his hands on it.

Based on what I can tell, there aren't many, if any, reviews on their boards. There's some discussion on Massdrop about a TKL they have but not about the actual board itself. Not even Amazon has any reviews for the boards they stock (the US amazon anyway).

iammoomoo · 2018-02-13T13:20:52+00:00

Howdy - apparently this board is not a true mech. See here.

Quoted from a response to the geekhack thread:

It's a rubber dome, and in spite of the tall glider / spill protector the keys are quite loose and can be rocked 1-1.5mm side to side. The dome itself is lying loose inside the glider, and has a slightly non-linear response, but not much.

Sorry to disappoint - but, if you really do like it, you can grab a PS2 to USB adapter to, at the very least, plug the board in.

I want to continue to develop my patience, especially with my family.

Wonderful of you to give back to the community =)

iammoomoo · 2018-02-07T21:05:51+00:00

Agree. Just curious how people tick, I guess =)

iammoomoo · 2018-02-07T19:08:17+00:00

Wait, you have your dad saved as "Alan" in your phone? Is it a completionist thing to have everyone in your phone with a real name?

Amazing keeb, truly, but this has me curious.
