Oh... and the RGB. Mustn't forget the RGB.

I hate how colored LEDs in everything somehow makes it "gamer."

It's hard to buy decent computer equipment these days without it coming with garish lights all over it. I had hoped it was a fad when I first started seeing the LEDs in case fans, but it's only gotten much, much worse over the years.

Oh, don't start. I own a ROG Zephyrus M. The colors are the only reason why I dislike its hardware. Everything else is perfectly fine.

Yeah... it's one of the things I look for in order to steer away from boards, and one of the reasons I like QMK so much, as I can turn off some of the worst offenders. I like a reasonable underlight; I've found that it helps me when the room is dark (which is most of the time unless I open a window). But I don't like the more garish combinations.

I played a game on my Unicomp yesterday. No. Just no.

I did a thing with my hardware at work.

Hahaha. Remapkey.exe, old-style.

Actually, a programmable XT->USB converter to fix the worst problems.

That's ... a thing. Yup. Definitely a thing. I haven't posted any of my latest.

Two HHKBs and one, uh, not HHKB?

wraith808 · « **Reply #59 on:** December 14, 2018, 02:31 PM »

Actually no HHKBs

I tried Topre before and found it overrated. Those sre Tokyo60s- same layout as HHKB, but Mx based switches (using Kailh speed copper) and QMK firmware. The last one is a Clueboard 66 v4 and is my daily driver, also using QMK.

I would go crazy with this layout.

And as an alternative, I can't see myself ever going back to even a TKL, let alone a full sized. I'm preparing to build an 1800 (the TKC 1800), as that might tempt me. But I'm doing that more for the exercise in making a cool board, as anything else.
